Song Lyrics

I wake up while you lie sleepin'
I take one look at you and wonder
Am I still dreamin'?
Are you some kind of angel come down to save me
Or just some place my imagination's tryin' to take me?

What have I done to deserve what I feel?
You give me somethin' that's too good to be real
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands?
I need to know just one thing
I still don't understand

Why do you love me?
Why do you give so much?
How do you heal the pain within me?
Is it the power of your touch?
Now that you've opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
I've become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby, why, baby, why me?
Why me, why me?

I ain't got a clue, maybe just a notion
Sometimes I'm helplessly adrift out in the ocean
I feel like a child with one sole intention
In search of an answer that defies all comprehension

I'm in too deep, but that's what you're all about
Got no hope or desire of finding my way out
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands?
I need to know that one thing
Can you help me understand?

Why do you love me?
Why do you give so much?
How do you heal the pain within me?
Is it the power of your touch?
Now that you've opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
I've become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby, why, baby, why me?

Why do you love me?
Why do you give so much?
How do you heal the pain within me?
Is it the power of your touch?
Now that you've opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
I've become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby, why, baby, why me?

Could've been anyone in this world
Why me?
Every lesson that I've learned
You've come to me and shown me
What it means to be loved
What it means to be loved

Why me, why me, why me, why me?
Help me understand just what you've done to me
'Cause I'm the richest man that I could ever be
Tell me why, tell me why, baby

Why me, why me, why me, why me?
Help me understand just what you've done to me
'Cause I'm the richest man that I could ever be
Tell me why, tell me why, baby
