Why by Annie Lennox

(Why)

(Why)

How many times
Do I have to try to (1)________ you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
(Oooh)
But (2)________ I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only (3)________ begun

I (4)________ myself too (5)________ times
Why don't you (6)________ learn
To keep your big mouth shut

That's why it hurts so bad
To hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth

Falling (7)________ your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
(Why)
(Why)
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read
What you're thinking
(Ooooh)
And I've heard it said too (8)________ times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see this (9)________ is sinking
This (10)________ is (11)______________ (this boat is sinking)

Let's go (12)________ to the water's edge
And we can cast away (13)__________ doubts

Some things are (14)____________ (15)________ unsaid
But they still turn me inside out

Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me
(Why)
Tell me
(Why)
This is the book I (16)__________ read
These are the words I (17)__________ said
This is the path I'll (18)__________ tread
These are the (19)____________ I'll (20)__________ instead
This is the joy that's (21)____________ spread
These are the tears, the (22)__________ we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the (23)________________ of my head
And (24)__________ are the years that we've spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel

I don't (25)__________ you know what I feel

I don't (26)__________ you know what I feel

You don't know what I feel
