Song Lyrics

Come on now, I'm the one you love
I'm the one you can't breathe without remember
Why you wanna make me cry like this?
Why is you wanna make me cry?
Why me?
Your love is like a chunk of gold
Hard to gain, hard to hold
Like a rose that's soft to touch
Love has gone and it hurts so much
Well then why...
Must the same love that made me laugh, make me cry?
Well now you think of love as sitting on a mountain
Think about it being a great big rock
Won't you think before you started to roll it down
Because once you start it, you can't make it stop
I've given all I have to give
And if you don't want me, baby
I don't want to live
Well then why...
Oh, why
Must the same love that made me laugh, gon make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry? [5x]
Why you wanna make me lay in my pillow
I'm just cryin' like a weeping willow
Tell me why, oh, why, oh, why
Why you wanna go home and make your lady cry
You use to be so soft and sweet to me
And now you act so wrong and mean to me
Now you get so wrong and mean to me
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Oh, why you wanna mess my pillow
You got me cryin' like a weeping willow
Wanna make me cry
Oh, why, oh, why
Why why why why
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Ooh, why
