[Intro: Enrique Iglesias & Sean Garrett]
Away away, oh, away away
I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know

[Verse 1: Enrique Iglesias & Sean Garrett]
This feels like the coldest day in a hurricane lookin' through a glass window
You screaming to the top of your lungs, and the bells are rung
And the crowd can't hear you
I know that I can see this buildin' burning
I just got to rescue a baby
But you don't even recognize me
And even though the feeling's been gone I just want to be here
But you pick up the little pieces of remains
I'm going down the plane is smokin'
And the only one who can save me is you but you want to throw me—

[Chorus: Enrique Iglesias]
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I wanna know, I wanna know why you wanna throw me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I gotta to know why you wanna throw me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I gotta know, I wanna know why you wanna throw me away?

[Verse 2: Enrique Iglesias & Sean Garrett]
You used to ask why I was I so skeptic, of love
Girl 'cause it changes, and it ain't got to be no real reason
You start to live the dream and before you know
There's a door that opens, and the moment you walk in and it close
Maybe it's somebody else, or a situation that you can't help
Ooh lover, lover, lover, lover
Just ain't what it used to be
I confronted my fears with open arms
Although you said you will never give up on us but now you blow me—

[Chorus: Enrique Iglesias]
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I wanna know, I wanna know why you wanna throw me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I gotta to know, I gotta know why you wanna blow me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I wanna know why you wanna throw me away?

[Verse 3 Enrique Iglesias & Sean Garrett]
Perfect we said we'd never be
So why is this happening to me?
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, no way, no way—

[Chorus: Enrique Iglesias]
Away, away, away, oh why?
I wanna know, I wanna know why you wanna throw me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I gotta to know, I gotta know why you wanna throw me—
Away, away, away, away, oh why?
I gotta know, I wanna know why you wanna throw me away?

Enrique Iglesias

Regarded as the “King of Latin Pop”, Enrique Iglesias is a bilingual singer, songwriter, actor, and music producer. He was born in Madrid, Spain with two older siblings and a father who was also a popular musician, Julio Iglesias. Enrique started his career in 1995 on a Spanish American record label– Fonovisa Records. Around five years after his start Enrique had made a successful crossover into American mainstream music and signed a $68 million dollar contract with Universal Music Latin Entertainment for Spanish music releases and Interscope Records for English music releases. Connecting strongly with both music markets, Enrique was something beyond what the average artist could offer at the time. After making many of his greatest hits with these two labels, in 2015 Iglesias signed with Sony Music. As of 2017 Iglesias has over 150 number one hits across all of the Billboard charts and has sold over 159 million records— making him one of the best selling Spanish artists of all time.
