I Ask You Why

Just as everything was looking good

My smile turned to a frown

And though I thought that nothing ever could

One thing got me down (down)

You never realise that what you've got

Can go so easily

You might have thought you never had a lot

But life is a lot to me

Living in happiness

Life was so fine

Then came a loneliness

I ask you why

I've learned to realise that what you get

Is only what you give

And something that I think I won't forget

There's more to life than just to live

Living in happiness

Life was so fine

Then came a loneliness

I ask you why

Many questions stare in front of me

And their answers throw my dreams

I'll keep on searching though no-one can see

For I wonder what this means

Living in happiness

Life was so fine

Then came a loneliness

I ask you why
