Why Do You Say You Love Me?

When my spirit gets low I look up to the sky

And I feel that wind-a-blow with my arms open wide

Why are we here and where do we go?

Does anybody know? Does anybody know ‘round here?


Why do you say you love me when you don’t?

And don’t ever say you will because you won’t


There are clouds rollin’ in the corners of my mind

And waterfalls of guilt pourin’ out both my eyes

Why do I fear my faith won’t grow?

Does anybody know? (Does anybody know?)

Is there more to life than the birds and the bees?

Or do we float around accidental on a breeze?

Why are we here and where do we go?

Does anybody know? Does anybody know?


Why do you say you love me when you don’t?

And don’t ever say you will because you won’t

And why do you say you’ll listen at all?

You’ll never try to catch me when I fall


Is this how it’s s’possed to be, momma!?

Is this how it’s s’possed to be?

Ain’t nobody worried ‘bout me, momma

I’ll be coming home, I’ll be coming home real soon


Why do you say you love me when you don’t?

And don’t ever say you will because you won’t

Why do you say you love me when you don’t?

And don’t ever say you will because you won’t!

And why do you say you’ll listen at all?

You’ll never try to catch me when I fall


You’ll never try to catch me when I fall
