Tell Me Why Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everywhere I look the sun is shining
But it's always raining here inside
I can see
You really had a hold on me
It's a mean old love
With a flame that never dies

[Chorus]
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye?

[Verse 2]
Everywhere I go you're in my shadow
When I turn around there's no one there
And it's a real bad sign
I'm walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared

[Chorus]
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye?
Won't you tell me why?

[Bridge]
Ask anyone you know
And they'll say "love fades away"
But this heart's cryin' just like yesterday
[Verse 3]
And it's a real bad sign
I'm walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared

[Chorus]
So won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye?
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
