I promised myself
I'd never fall for you
Because time has taught me
What you would do
'Cause I waited for you
Through the sorrow and pain
But you played me a fool
A fool in the rain
And I ask, "Why?"
Why did you forget me?
Why did you regret me?
And I scream, "Why?"
Was I a mistake
You couldn't erase?
Tell me the truth
Tell me the truth
You promised yourself
You'd never fall for me
You said one day
Your tears would fall from deceit
I couldn't wait for you
Because it hurt me so much
And now you're gone, now you're gone
Now that you're gone
And I ask, "Why?"
Why did I love you?
Nothing but trouble
And I scream, "Why?"
Was I a mistake
You couldn't erase?
Tell me the truth
Tell me the truth
I promised myself
I'd never fall for you
Because time has taught me
What you would do
'Cause I waited for you
Through the sorrow and pain
But you played me a fool
A fool in the rain
And I ask, "Why?"
Why did you forget me?
Why did you regret me?
And I scream, "Why?"
Was I a mistake
You couldn't erase?
Tell me the truth
Tell me the truth
You promised yourself
You'd never fall for me
You said one day
Your tears would fall from deceit
I couldn't wait for you
Because it hurt me so much
And now you're gone, now you're gone
Now that you're gone
And I ask, "Why?"
Why did I love you?
Nothing but trouble
And I scream, "Why?"
Was I a mistake
You couldn't erase?
Tell me the truth
Tell me the truth
