Why is it you must be so very cruel to me
Why when i hold you close do you insist your toes
Are being stood on by mine
Why when i kiss your lips do you astound me
Saying that you won't put your arms around me
No one should be that cold
Whatever I've done surely I've a right to know
Why is it everytime we visit friends of mine
Why when I'm feeling good you act as if
I should be at an all time low
Why after all these years we've been together
Must you behave as if we'd hardly ever spoken
It seems that you're happy as long as I'm upset
Is it that you don't love me oh why
Have you had enough of me oh why
Do i have cry myself to sleep
Why in the name of god are you so angry
Could it be that you can no longer stand me
You're breaking my heart just in case you didn't know
