lyrics

Don't Know Why

It's coming true, you know it's almost over
it's coming true, you know it's almost over
you're missing him
looks like he might be staying
he's listening
can't hear a word your saying

And you're all locked inside
and you're all locked inside

Lying awake by the window that breaks
like your heart, all day
if you could say its over
what will you say
sit in a chair like you want to
as the hours fly
you can only say it's over
I loved you

Now look at you, you think that you
don't deserve it
it's comin' true you think it might
all be worth it
he's listening, it's not a game we're playin'
he's listening, can't hear a word your saying

And you're all locked inside
and you're all locked inside

Lying awake by the window that breaks
like your heart, all day
if you could say its over
what will you say
sit in a chair like you want to
as the hours fly
you can only say it's over
I loved you and I don't know why
