Why.

They say it takes time, and my pain will heal but i miss you even more as the days go by.

No one knows and no one understands; i was just a little girl, naive to their eyes.

We used to sit by the stairs and he'd make me laugh,

we used to eat grapes and a problem shared was a problem halved.

Why the world took him away from me, I still don't know,

all they told me was that it was his time to go.

I wiped a tear and said okay,

and Mum told me i can see him again another day.

So i walked back to the room and held onto my Dad,

thinking about the good times together we had.

Dad held me tight and told me not to cry

but i couldn't help it as i kept asking why...

They all told me i'll understand when im a lil older,

so i waited for the years to pass and i got a lil wiser...

So why don't i still understand why i lose all the things that mean so much to me?

Why can't things just go back to the way they used to be?

These questions remain unanswered but you're still the one i need,

the one who will strengthen me as my heart bleeds.

Until that day comes when i'll understand the reason i had to say goodbye,

until that day i'll forever be wondering why...
