I try to say goodbye
Try to walk away in style
But every time I see you
Again, I wanna be near you

Oh, I can't help it, just I can't help it
I can clearly read the signs that say
Secret love ain't forever
We can't make it together
So I try to forget, get you out of my head
So I try, yes I try, oh I try and I try, oh

Why, why did love hit me this way
Every night I kneel and pray, ooh why, tell me why
Oh, why, why did love hit me this way
Why couldn't I just stay
Oh why, tell me why
Somebody tell me why

You and I know, we can't go on
Even with a love so strong
Mountains, it could move to the side
But it's bound to never see the light
So I try to forget, get you out of my head
So I try and I try and I try and I try, oh

Why, why did love hit me this way
Every night I kneel and pray, oh why, tell me why
Oh, why, why did love hit me this way
Why couldn't I just stay
Oh why, tell me why

Meet me in the dark
Meet me in the light
Don't know if it's wrong
Can this be right

Why, why did love hit me this way
Every night I kneel and pray, oh why, tell me why
Oh, why, why did love hit me this way
Why couldn't I just stay
Oh why, tell me why
Somebody tell me why, tell me why
Somebody tell me why, can't go on
Somebody tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why Tell me why
Tell me why Tell me why
Somebody tell me why
