"Why" by ANNIE LENNOX How many times do I have to try to tell you That I'm sorry for the things I've done But when I start to try to tell you That's when you have to tell me Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun I tell myself too many times Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words That keep on falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Tell me... Why Why I may be mad I may be blind I may be viciously unkind But I can still read what you're thinking And I've heard it said too many times That you'd be better off Besides... Why can't you see this boat is sinking (this boat is sinking this boat is sinking) Let's go down to the water's edge we can cast away those doubts Some things are better left unsaid But they still turn me inside out Turning inside out turning inside out Tell me... Why Tell me... Why This is the book I never read These are the words I never said This is the path I'll never tread These are the dreams I'll dream instead This is the joy that's seldom spread These are the tears... The tears we shed This is the fear This is the dread These are the contents of my head And these are the years that we have spent And this is what they represent And this is how I feel Do you know how I feel 'cause i don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel I don't think you know what I fear You don't know what I fear If you find some error in Why Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Thanks to fehmi for submitting the lyrics. Review about Why Don't know why | Reviewer: Charles | 11/19/09 This song speaks volumes to me even now. My partner and I broke up about 2yrs. ago and this song reminds me of him everytime I hear it and immediately brings me to tears. The breakup was mostly my fault and every day I wake up I regret my actions that lead up to our separation. We're still friends and we stay in contact occasionally but it's not the same. We both have found other love interests and I think we both genuinely love our new partners and our new partners are very good to us but I also think he and I are still emotionally connected to one another and I don't think we're able to let that go. We can go for weeks or months without contacting one another and eventually when we touch base with one another we seem to always have the exact same experiences and issues in our lives. He's the one and only person that I honestly believe we were made for each other. I do know without a doubt that he was the love of my life and if things were to align perfectly I feel like we could possibly be together again but I'm not holding out for that to happen. Annie Lennoxes Why | Reviewer: Morgan_Charlie | 8/10/09 I saw your video Annie Lennox as a kid! And You are the healer in my life! as Stevie Wonder aswell. Yoy! You are the golden lady of 80's-90's-2000's I wish I had a gift like yours and when you sing the lyrics Its a golden Touch, I love, when u played the piano and when You wore that fantastic Diva outfit of Orange feathers. Angelistic-Divaliciousity! 05/27.2009 | Reviewer: maura | 5/27/09 To the person who corrected the lyrics, Ms. Lennox very deliberately shades from WHAT I FEEL to WHAT I FEAR at the end as she whispers- it is part of the genius of the song. This and ONE by U2 are powerful anthems to authentic human love, which is brutal and crushing and sublime and why we are here on earth. John Cameron Mitchell wrote a song (The Origin of Love from the film Hedwig and the Angry Inch) explaining that in the mythic past men and women were two halves of one being which was violently rent in two, and we now spend eternity trying to recapture that unity at all costs by crashing together in a messy and painful but heroic fight. We have no choice. I always say God never loves us more than when we TRY, no matter how many times we fail. genuinely moving... | Reviewer: Steve | 5/8/09 This song still moves me to tears - a big 55yr old generally blokey man - it somehow just hits and represents the feelings of regret for loves lost and what you know you have never experienced because of it... Why -Annie Lennox | Reviewer: Emsy | 10/21/08 I remember this song came out when I was in high school. I was 17 and had just broken up with my first genuine high school boyfriend. I used to play this song a lot. 20 or so years later and this song still holds the exact same context for me because, while I've greatly changed as a person over the years, my relationships have not. My Review | Reviewer: Emsy | 10/23/08 Hi there. I sent a review through earlier this week. I was recently listening to the song and then realised that I think you had the last paragraph wrong; just towards the end. I'm not sending a url source through because these lyrics are on every site I've seen...though I'll send you through the correct lyrics here. Cheers. "And this is what they represent And this is how I feel Do you know how I feel? 'Cause I don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel I don't think you know what I feel You don't know what I feel" Edge of reason and tears........ | Reviewer: Rachel | 9/5/08 I am in serious contemplation a divorce..... 16 years for nothing worth saving..We have tried so many times to save it for so many reasons, including mainly for our children, but if there is no love it just cant be saved and at the moment as I write this I keep hearing this song both inside my head and heart, and on the radio and I feel so like the author of the song can identify with me more than he ever has.... and though my heart is torn on what decision to make, when I hear this song, I then realize it has already been made. :D | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/25/07 This song gives me the chills, only amazing songs do that. Chills in the good way, that is. Chills in the 'Oh..mygod.." sort of way. Chills that make you think. I love this song. I love how...how fresh it is every time you hear it. Ordinary heartbreak | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/11/07 One of the tunes your likely to hear at least once a week, no matter what you try. Radio, elevator music, holding on the phone. And it chokes me up every time. How true this is... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/17/07 My husband contemplated cheating... he did emotionally. This is the song that really touched him during the time he was debating on telling me about his "affair." We are attempting to work through this and I'm going to attempt to know how he feels and what he fears....
