Why Now

Somewhere off

In a distant dream

You were long ago

Like a memory

Now you're back

Standing here

Sayin' all the words

You think I want to hear

Did you finally realize

What I knew all along

That you never needed me

Until I was gone

Why now

Should I turn my life around

Just to let you bring me down

Another time

Oh, why now

After all the years apart

Should I open up my heart

And let you in my life again

Everything, that I tried to forget

Thought I left behind, guess it ain't over yet

And babe, it's almost worth all the pain

Just to look in your eyes and hold you again

You never realized how much I tried

To let you know what I was feeling inside

Why now

Should I turn my life around

Just to let you bring me down

Another time

Oh, why now

After all the years apart

Should I open up my heart

And let you in my life again

Hold on, cause it's starting all over

Hold on, cause it won't be the same

Hold on, letting go would be better

Letting go of the pain

How did you think I would be

Waiting for you for an eternity

Why now

Should I turn my life around

Just to let you bring me down

Another time

Oh, why now

After all the years apart

Should I open up my heart

And let you in my life again
