I'm so alone in a crowd and cry Too many tears Just like a child who's lost I became a prisoner of my fears
People come, people go They are hiding in shadows, Hiding in dreams
Moving in, moving out They are nothing but strangers, Strangers as it seems
My paper heart is so easily torn Again and again I never know what the reason may be It just doesn't end
There's a sound in the air While the time goes on slipping, Slipping away
In the air, it is everywhere, nowhere, somewhere So I'm gonna have to say
Why (Is it there) Tell me why (Is it there) I don't ever wanna say good-bye (Do you ever wonder why) As I look into an empty sky Somebody tell me why (Somebody tell me why) I feel there may be something there I feel there may be someone there
Sometimes a ship's gotta break every chain To go to sea
I'm getting on, I'm getting on,getting on I want a love to set me free
Take a chance, take a stand There's a destiny, waiting on a train And your kiss,it is everywhere, nowhere, somewhere It is warmer than rain
Why (Is it there) Tell me why (Is it there) I don't ever wanna say good-bye (Do you ever wonder why) As I look into an empty sky Somebody tell me why (Somebody tell me why) And when I'm wounded in the heart That's when I play my greatest part
Come on, come on, come on Cover me tonight Come on, come on, come on I'm gonna make it right
You Know that I try, and I try and I try
Why (Tell me now) Tell me why (Tell me how) I don't ever wanna say good-bye (Do you ever wonder why) As I look into an empty sky Somebody tell me why (Somebody tell me why)
Maybe somewhere (Tell me why) Maybe someaway (Tell me why) Gonna find something to set me free (Do you ever wonder why) I don't know what it's gonna be Somebody tell me why (Somebody tell me why)
I feel there may be something there I feel there may be someone there
