Why?

Why?                                         January 6, 2007

Baby, you hate me,
But I never hated you.
Why, what did I ever do?
I just have to know something
For a little peace of mind.

Baby, you scorned me,
Yet I never scorned back.
Why would I ever do that?
I just have to know why
Or I'm-a really gonna die.

Last time I checked,
We were two lovers back-to-back,
Swimming around in this circle we call life.
I did everything a man could do
To make sure you knew my love was true,
Yet somehow, you let that feeling die.

Baby, can you see me?
I'm crying out many tears.
Why would you ever think twice
About loving me
When I worship you, my sweet?
Can't you even tell me "why"?
