Why by Annie Lennox

(Why)

(Why)

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

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

That's why it hurts so bad
To hear the words
That keep on falling (6)________ your mouth

Falling from (7)________ 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 (9)____________ off
Besides
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
This boat is sinking (this boat is sinking)

Let's go (10)________ to the water's edge
And we can cast away (11)__________ doubts

Some things are better left unsaid
But (12)________ still (13)________ me (14)____________ out

Turning (15)____________ out
Turning inside out
Tell me
(Why)
Tell me
(Why)
This is the book I never read
These are the words I (16)__________ said
This is the (17)________ I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's (18)____________ spread
These are the tears, the tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we've spent
And (19)________ is what (20)________ represent
And this is how I feel
Do you (21)________ how I feel
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel

I don't (22)__________ you (23)________ (24)________ I feel

I don't think you (25)________ what I feel

You don't know what I feel
