Why by Annie Lennox
(Why)
(Why)
How (1)________ times
Do I (2)________ to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
(Oooh)
But (3)________ I (4)__________ to try to (5)________ you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, (6)________ kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn
To keep (7)________ big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad
To hear the words
That (8)________ on falling (9)________ your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling (10)________ (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 said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see (12)________ boat is sinking
This (13)________ is sinking (this (14)________ is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can (15)________ away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they (16)__________ turn me inside out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me
(Why)
Tell me
(Why)
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never 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 (17)________________ of my head
And (18)__________ are the (19)__________ that we've spent
And this is (20)________ they represent
And (21)________ is how I feel
Do you (22)________ how I feel
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't (23)__________ you know (24)________ I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel
(Why)
