Lyrics
The reason why I'm not with you
I thought you didn't want to be with me
I stayed up all last night trying to figure why
You slammed the door on me
And I thought of all the things I might have done last night
Some clumsy thing I didn't do or say just right
I worried myself right into a brand new day
My eyes are hot with tears and I just can't think straight
Tell me the reason why
You won't explain and I can't guess
Didn't I touch you right?
Or should I talk a little less?
Please tell me the reason
Please tell me the reason why
The reason why I'm feeling bad
I'm thinking that you may be leaving me
Oh, I spent a lonely night in the kitchen
Trying to fight all the tears in me
I'm still at the table as the day unfolds
With a half a cup of coffee that by now is cold
The silence that you answered I don't understand
And though I try to read your face, you know I can't
Tell me the reason why
You won't explain, I just can't guess
Didn't I touch you right?
Or should I talk a little less?
Please tell me the reason
Please tell me the reason why
Tell me the reason why
Please tell me
Tell me the reason why
I thought you didn't want to be with me
I stayed up all last night trying to figure why
You slammed the door on me
And I thought of all the things I might have done last night
Some clumsy thing I didn't do or say just right
I worried myself right into a brand new day
My eyes are hot with tears and I just can't think straight
Tell me the reason why
You won't explain and I can't guess
Didn't I touch you right?
Or should I talk a little less?
Please tell me the reason
Please tell me the reason why
The reason why I'm feeling bad
I'm thinking that you may be leaving me
Oh, I spent a lonely night in the kitchen
Trying to fight all the tears in me
I'm still at the table as the day unfolds
With a half a cup of coffee that by now is cold
The silence that you answered I don't understand
And though I try to read your face, you know I can't
Tell me the reason why
You won't explain, I just can't guess
Didn't I touch you right?
Or should I talk a little less?
Please tell me the reason
Please tell me the reason why
Tell me the reason why
Please tell me
Tell me the reason why
