WHY

words/music-Lenny Solomon  © L.Solomon 2005

 

Why, whenever I see you, I think my life is a crime

Why, whenever I hear you, my pulse races with time

Should I believe these feelings, that ring in my head are true

I have no way of knowing,

I need to know more about you

 

Why when action is needed, I have the urge to stand still

Why when the window is open, can’t seem to go for the kill

Part of me wants to stand up, scream to the world I’m through

Tell me if you are the answer,

I need to know more about you

 

Early this morning, rain hitting hard on the ground

Bones are so cold, see no direction but down

I once knew what mattered, now I don’t have a clue

Another reason for saying,

I need to know more about you

 

Why, it’s so hard open, your eyes, look to your heart

Why, it should be so easy, get free, make a new start

Maybe I should stop thinking, that one day we’ll be two

Still I wait for the day when you say to me,

I need to know more about you
