Why

I can tell you’ve been thinkin’
It’s clear by the look in your eye
Piece by piece I’ve been breakin’
From watchin’ you cast me aside
Don’t go tryin’ to hide it
You can’t cover up how you feel
No matter how much you deny it
The distance between us is real

So why can’t we just walk away
Why do we keep holding on
And why do we keep trying to save
Something we both know is gone
I need you to tell me
Please won’t you tell me…why?
When your arms are around me
I feel like I’m wasting your time

I’ve gone from driving you crazy
To not even crossing your mind
We can’t keep trying to fight it
By passing the blame all around
We can try all we want to disguise it
But the wall that we built won’t come down
I remember your eyes used to shine
The moment I’d walk through the door

Some feelings can change over time
And now your eyes they don’t shine anymore
So why can’t we just walk away
Why do we keep holding on
And why do we keep trying to save
Something we both know is gone
