Why do you do the things you do?
Why do you say the things you do?
I just don't understand it,
Can't get my head around it,
How you can say that we are through.

Each day I see you standing there,
I try to act like I don't care,
But, deep in my heart I'm crying,
Feels like a part is dying,
How can you hurt me like you do?

Whatever happened, I don't know,
It's hard for me to watch you go,
If I could change it and start again,
Maybe, this time we'd start as friends.

I see you looking more at him,
I know you're loving only him,
Just try to believe my crying,
Is part of me just denying,
That you are going home with him.

When I drive by and see you there,
I'm just pretending I don't care,
What will it take to love you?
Is there a chance to see you?
Now before both of us end.

Whatever happened, I don't know,
It's hard for me to watch you go,
If I could change it and start again,
Maybe, this time we'd start as friends.
