Once again I stare upwards
Gazing at the lonely star
Why was I just not enough
To stay right where you are
Chorus:
If I only knew why
I wouldnt need to cry
I'd find a way to get by
If I only knew why
I can take the pain
If you would or could explain
Why I can't be your guy
If I only knew why
What else is it that you want?
What is it youre lookin for?
Cause I gave my everything
If you needed it I would've found more
Was it someone else
Who came and took you away
Or was something that I did
To put us at our final day
Chorus:
If I only knew why
I wouldnt need to cry
I'd find a way to get by
If I only knew why
I can take the pain
If you would or could explain
Why I can't be your guy
If I only knew why
I cant turn back time
And I cant make you mine
But tell me just one thing
Before you up and say goodbye
Where did all your feelings flow
What happened to us deep down below
And if I only knew why
I could finally let it go
Chorus:
If I only knew why
I wouldnt need to cry
I'd find a way to get by
If I only knew why
I can take the pain
If you would or could explain
Why I can't be your guy
If I only knew why
Chorus:
If I only knew why
I wouldnt need to cry
I'd find a way to get by
If I only knew why
I can take the pain
If you would or could explain
Why I can't be your guy
If I only knew why
