How many do have
to tell
you?
many times do I
I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the thing
s I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only
We've just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn
To keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad
To hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Fall ing from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why?
I may be mad, I may be blind,
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're
thinking
An d I've heard it said too many times
that you'd be better off besides
Why can't you see?
boat is sinking,
this boat is sinking,
this boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
We can't cast away those stars
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me why
Tell me why
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll
dream instead
This is the joy that seldom spread
These are the tears, tears we share
This is the fear, this is the dread
These are the vultures to my head
And these are the years
that we'll spend
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel?
I don't think you know
I don't think you know what I feel, why
