I stood helpless as your tears fell We watched as you wept (you wept) And none could speak (speak) No one could tell me why (why) No one could tell me why We held each other close (as the hounds encircled) You were all I had, but all things must come to an end You tried to fake a smile But we knew this would never end This will never end Your cries rang out Against the pale blue sky Your heart will never thaw We held each other close I'd search for an answer forever But no one could tell me why Why? Why? (We held each other close) Why? Why? (We held each other close) Why? Why? Why, why, why?
