The Question

The question that I have to ask
the question that I have to ask

I didn't think I'd ever see you again
But now that you're here
There's something I'd like to ask you
You took the love and threw it all away

It's been so long since I've seen you last
There's so many things I have to ask
Please stop a while and let me have some time
So tell me what you've been doing with yourself

I'd like to know (to know)
To be honest, you are always on my mind
I think about the times we had, so much good it makes me mad
(Oh!) to think that you'd just walk away
Without a word to say

The question that I have to ask
Since I have the chance to ask it is after all this time's gone by
Please tell me why?
The question that burns in my mind that I've been
Living with deep down inside, is why you never even said goodbye?

The question that I have to ask, please tell me why? (Why, why, why?)

The scars have taken time to heal
But now you're here, once more I feel
The pains that were subdued return again
Not a word you said to me before you left that day

Please tell me honestly and be my friend
I think about the times we had, so much good it makes me mad (oh!)
What did I do, please, let me know, was it so bad it made you go? Oh

The question that I have to ask since
I have the chance to ask it is
After all this time's gone by, please tell me why (why? Why? Why?)
The question that burns in my mind that
I've been living with deep down inside
Is why you never even said goodbye? Why did you have to go?

I will (I will, I will, I will)
