Why by Annie Lennox
(Why)
(Why)
How many times
Do I (1)________ to try to tell you
That I'm (2)__________ for the (3)____________ I've done
(Oooh)
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to (4)________ me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only (5)________ begun
I (6)________ (7)____________ too many times
Why don't you ever learn
To (8)________ your big mouth shut
That's why it (9)__________ so bad
To hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from (10)________ mouth
Falling from (11)________ 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 (12)________ too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see this (13)________ is sinking
This boat is sinking (this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can (14)________ (15)________ those doubts
Some things are (16)____________ left unsaid
But they (17)__________ turn me (18)____________ out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me
(Why)
Tell me
(Why)
This is the (19)________ I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll (20)__________ tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears, the tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the (21)________________ of my head
And (22)__________ 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 (23)__________ you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel
