And You Know Why

It’s a sad old day
And it’s hard this way
When I’m all alone and think of you

If I told myself
There was someone else
I might accept that we were through

When will I know better than to love somebody
When will I know better than to try
But since the dreams don’t stay too long
And broken hearts are never strong
Maybe there’s a reason I still cry
And you know why

Now it’s plain to see
That it’s up to me
To forget about what I can’t do

There’s a time to know
When you need to go
And to set your sights on someone new

When will I know better than to love somebody
When will I know better than to try
But since the dreams don’t stay too long
And broken hearts are never strong
Maybe there’s a reason I still cry
And you know why

I tell myself I’m so free
But she was so much of me
The love I felt for someone
Now leaves me cold til I’m numb
I want to rid this sadness from my mind

When will I know better than to love somebody
When will I know better than to try
But since the dreams don’t stay too long
And broken hearts are never strong
Maybe there’s a reason I still cry
And you know why
