[Verse 1]
Baby, I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna miss a moment with you
Won't let the stars fade tonight
Tell me to, and I will shoot down the moon
Don't you keep me guessing, here's my only question:
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why
[Verse 2]
When a million little things add up
To something that we both can't explain
We can say nothing at all
'Cause your eyes say everything
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why
[Bridge]
You're in my head, you're in my heart
In the hands of fate
I want you in my arms
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, tell me why
Why, why, why, why
Baby, I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna miss a moment with you
Won't let the stars fade tonight
Tell me to, and I will shoot down the moon
Don't you keep me guessing, here's my only question:
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why
[Verse 2]
When a million little things add up
To something that we both can't explain
We can say nothing at all
'Cause your eyes say everything
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why
[Bridge]
You're in my head, you're in my heart
In the hands of fate
I want you in my arms
[Chorus]
Why, baby, why waste a moment like this?
Give me all you've got to give
Let me be the one you can't resist
Why, tell me, why would we ever deny what feels so damn right?
If this is the where and now's the when, then tell me why
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, tell me why
Why, why, why, why
