Tell Me Why

Well, you'd think by now
My reckless days were over
That running with the crowd would wear me out

With one woman in my pocket
And another by my side
Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why

I've put you in a place
That's not so easy
I've made you watch me tear your feelings down

But it leaves me with a question
That's unanswered in your eyes
Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why

Now once again
I'm making you this promise
That I'm gonna keep my love out of the streets

And with all of your heart
You're gonna try to keep my honest
Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why

Yeah
When you look at me
Girl, tell me what you're seeing
What do you see beyond these shallow lies

You're so close to the truth
But you go on believing
So tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why

Now once again
I'm making you this promise
That I'm gonna keep my love out of the streets
And with all of your heart
You're gonna try to keep me honest

Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why you love me
Baby, tell me why
