I Don't Know Why
You say you want everything good for me
But I know so well, I can tell when you're lying
Making believe you're looking up to me
And I'm just sitting here, crying
And I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
I don't know why I don't care
You'll go on back to him, he'll take you in
I know he's going to love you (I know he's going to love you)
But I still want you back again
'Cause baby, you're part of me, it's deep inside of you
When he's done all he can (when he's done all he can)
You'll come running to your other man, oh, yeah (oh, yeah)
And I don't know why (and I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
I don't know why I don't care
I know you won't soon forget last night
Your precious love was all over me, but it's all right
Go on and try again, but you know, nothing's going to change (nothing's going to change)
That's the way it's going to be, oh-oh, yeah (oh, yeah)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
Why? I don't know (I don't know why I don't care)
I don't know (I don't know why I don't care)
I don't know why (I don't know why I don't care)
I got to do (I don't know why I don't care)
(I don't know why I don't care)
(I don't know why I don't care)
But I know so well, I can tell when you're lying
Making believe you're looking up to me
And I'm just sitting here, crying
And I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
I don't know why I don't care
You'll go on back to him, he'll take you in
I know he's going to love you (I know he's going to love you)
But I still want you back again
'Cause baby, you're part of me, it's deep inside of you
When he's done all he can (when he's done all he can)
You'll come running to your other man, oh, yeah (oh, yeah)
And I don't know why (and I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
I don't know why I don't care
I know you won't soon forget last night
Your precious love was all over me, but it's all right
Go on and try again, but you know, nothing's going to change (nothing's going to change)
That's the way it's going to be, oh-oh, yeah (oh, yeah)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why (I don't know why)
I don't know why I don't care
Why? I don't know (I don't know why I don't care)
I don't know (I don't know why I don't care)
I don't know why (I don't know why I don't care)
I got to do (I don't know why I don't care)
(I don't know why I don't care)
(I don't know why I don't care)
