Why Songtext
von Read Southall Band

I saw you downtown
Through the glow of my tail lights
You were stopped behind me
Your car had caught my eye
I′m glad this light's slow
Gimme a chance to catch my breath
Right before I drive away to forget

Why do I give a damn after everything went south?
Why do I write songs, why can′t my heart shut its mouth?
Why can't I move on and give a fair chance to someone new?
Why can't I fall out of love with you?


And I′ve tried pretty
I tried outgoing and fun
And I′ve tried intelligent
Trust me, I tried dumb
I tried wealthy
I've been looked at as a way out
I′ve tried everything I know to try out

And why do I give a damn after everything went south?
Why do I write songs, why can't my heart shut its mouth?
Why can′t I move on and give a fair chance to someone new?
Why can't I fall out of love with you?

Why do I give a damn after everything went south?
Why do I write songs, why can′t my heart shut its damn mouth?
Can't I move on and give a fair chance to someone new?
Why can't I fall out of love with you?

Why can′t I fall out of love?
