Ricky Nelson - The Reason Why lyrics

rate me

(R. Nelson)

Can't you see the reason why

I walked in, I sat right down and cried

Can't you see the reason why

I looked at you and knew it meant goodbye.

You said that you loved me once before

And now you don't love me anymore

Well I tried, baby I tried.

Can't you see the reason why

I try so hard to stop the tears I cry

Can't you see the reason why

There's nothing here without you, you're my life.

We were so happy yesterday

But yesterday's come and gone today

So goodbye, baby goodbye.

Can't you see the reason why

It hurts me so to know you've said goodbye

Can't you see the reason why

I feel the way I do for you inside.

You make it so hard for me sometimes

I don't think I'll get you off my mind

But I'll try, so baby goodbye

Bye, bye, baby.

Can't you see the reason why

If love meant life to me, I'd never die

Can't you see the reason why

You mean more to me than just goodbye.

You've been with me so long it seems

And now you're in someone elses dreams

Well I tried, baby I tried.

Can't you see the reason why

I walked in, I sat right down and cried

Can't you see the reason why

I looked at you and knew it meant goodbye.

You said that you loved me once before

And now you don't love me anymore

Well I tried, so baby goodbye

Bye, bye, baby, yeah...
