I Wonder Why

I'm tired of fighting
Got a fever when you try to get out
I've tried but I can't understand what all the fuss is about
I wish that I could be the man that you wanted me to be
I need you to see

[Chorus]
I try and I try yet I can't seem to fly
My soul full of pain when you cry
I wish I was perfect and god knows I try
But everything I do
Just tears your heart in two
I wonder why.

I never thought that being lovers meant that we can't be friends
If only I could understand what makes you feel it's the end
What can I say to make you stay and stop breaking free from me
I need you to see that I...

[Chorus]

Can't you see
It's killing me,
It's not the way things used to be
Do you remember yesterday
We used to smile without a care
Whenever you and I were near
Can't you see that I wanna be with you
Oh baby!

Oh, oh, oh, everything I do
Tears your heart in two

[Chorus]
