Lyrics:
Tell Me Why

TELL ME WHY

If you asked me I'd have said
It was obvious that we'd be together
Such a perfect fit
Just like some things go in a glove
First it's late nights, then late morns
Playing the happy campers (yeah)
Then it's fighting back the tears
And asking the stars above

CHORUS:
I don't know why the world turns
I don't know why the moon is blue
Tell me why my heart yearns
Tell me why - tell me why
I saw you walkin' down the street
And I asked you for a light and your number
We had a long conversation
Though you barely spoke a word or two
No I never did have much luck with any kind of religion (no..)
Now I find myself saying oh God, what am I gonna do?

CHORUS
I don't know why the world spins
I don't know why the moon is blue
Tell me why my heart sings
Tell me why - tell me why
Now I'm packing my bags, let the screen door slam
Knock the pictures right off of the wall
It's a god-damn shame 'cos now I'm screaming your name
I know I need your love
But there's some things I'm just not sure of

CHORUS:
I don't know why the world turns
I don't know why the moon is blue
Tell me why my heart yearns
Tell me why - tell me why
Tell me why - tell me why
