Why? Why me, baby?
Girl, I need to know why.
Why? Why me, baby?
What did I do, girl? What did I do?
Why? Why me, baby?
You broke me heart.
Check this out, honey.

It seems like 99 years have gone by since the last time I talked to you, you know.
(Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm.)
I never realized that something so innocent and so sweet
could make a man feel so much pain. (No, no, no.)
Times you'd jump out of my car and I'd chase you 'til I
was out of breath.
Go to your job and pick you up, but you never showed up that day.
(Where were you, baby?) Where were you, baby?
(Where were you?) Who was you seein'?
It's a hurtin' feelin', sugar.
How could you, why would you abuse my love, sweetheart,
cursin' me out in front of my friends? (Mmmm, mmmm.)
And I could never do anything to you, 'cause there was no way
I could hurt something I treasured so much.
(Nothin' to you, baby. Nothin' to you, baby, baby.)
Thought I was right on time, but it seems like it was too late.
(No.)
You hurt me, baby. (No.)
But hey, I'm man enough to admit it. (No.)
(No. No, no, no, baby.) And all I wanna know is why.

Why? Why me, baby?
(Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.) Tell me why, baby.
Tell me why.
Why? Why me, baby?
Tell me, baby. (Why? Why me, baby?)
Tell me, baby.
You broke my heart.
Check this out, honey. (Why?)
Check this out.

Yo, the way it happened was crazy.
We had an argument. (Mmmm.)
I didn't see you for two or three days.
And then when I go to the movies to get you off my mind,
(Get you off my mind.)
I see you sittin' there holdin' hands with the next man.
Called you on the phone a couple of times, but it was
always your cousin, step-off, (You lied.) just a friend.
(You know you lied to me, baby.)
People used to tell me, "L, she was fakin'," but I couldn't
see it.
I was blinded by love. (Got nothin' on me, baby.)
Nothin' was too expensive. No night was too rainy.
(I did everything for you, baby.) I was always there for you.
I did a few things call me a fool for, droppin' you friends off, all that.
All I wanted in return was undivided attention and love.
(I need love, baby.)
If my heart had eyes, it would cry.
You're still in my world. (Oooh, you're still in my world.)
Life is worth livin', love. Tell me why.

Why? Why me, baby?
Why would you do it to me, baby? Heh.
(Why? Why me, baby?) Oooh, you hurt me so bad when you left me, baby.
(Why? Why me, baby?) You broke my......heart.
Tell 'em what time it is, Keith. (Why?)
Tell 'em what time it is.

I walk around talkin' to myself,
"Do another day gets nothin'?
Am I goin' crazy, baby?" (Why? Why? Why me?)
I look at the photograph that we once shared
And I think about the moment, yeah, yeah, about each other.
Remember all the things I used to say to you, girl?
(Why? Why? Why me, baby?)
There's a right and a wrong way to love somebody. (Why? Why? Why me?)
I'll always give all my love to you. (Why? Why? Why me?)
I'm on a merry-go-round and round. (Why? Why? Why me?)
Girl, how deep is your love? (Why? Why? Why me, baby?)
I got to go outside in the rain. (Why? Why? Why me?)
It's nice to believe that we could last forever. (Why? Why? Why me, baby?)
Why, why, why, why me? (Why? Why? Why me?)
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby. (Why? Why? why me, baby?)

No, no, no, no, no, no. Tell me not true.
Oooh, do you know, do you know how much I love you?
You were my woman and I was your man.
Oh girl, I'll never, never, never, never, never understand.
