Des’ree

Producer: Phil Legg Ashley Ingram

Why should I love you?
You treat me so bad, you make me glad
Why should I care for you?
I'll tell you my feelings honestly
There are few factors that lie in your favor
Yet I'm attracted, oh so distracted
Pride may ruin you slowly, harboring feelings
You never let go
Trying to tell me that I'm in the wrong
Though we've been together for so long
There is something there that I need
Yet far away from you I can be free
You wake up the sun shines on your face
You crack a smile you've got big plans today
Your freedom lies way up in the skies
You'll fly high with invisible wings
Why should I love you?
You're makin' me so glad, so sad
Why should I care for you?
You're makin' me so glad, so sad
Ooo, ooh, ooo, ooh
Ooh, ohh, ooh, ooh
Why?
