Tell Me Why

Tell Me Why
Seasons have passed years they have gone by
Is time the great healer its made out to be?
We carry on our heads held high
But inside our broken hearts are hid, hidden from sight

Tell me will it be you who comes for me from the other side
I know it will be you who'll come for me from the other side

Tell me why did you have to go?
Gone and left us all on our own
And now number eighteen is where you lie
Peacefully gazing up at the skies
Tell me please where are you now?
Help us to carry on living somehow

When the lights flicker is it you drawing near?
I call out your name but you don't seem to hear
Tell me how you still managed to smile
When your fate you must have known all the while
Then on one black day came your last sigh
Did we really get a chance to say goodbye?

Tell me will it be you who comes for me from the other side
I know it will be you who'll come for me from the other side

Tell me why did you have to go?
Gone and left us all on our own
And now number eighteen is where you lie
Peacefully gazing up at the skies
Tell me please where are you now?
Help us to carry on living somehow
