Don't Know Why Lyrics

You say you want everything good for me
But I know you so well, I can tell when you're lying
Making believe you're looking up to me
And I'm just sitting here, crying
And I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why I don't care

You'll go on back to him, he'll take you in
I know he's gonna love you, but I still want you back again
'Cause baby you're part of me, it's deep inside of you
When he's done all he can, you'll come running to your other man, oh yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why I don't care

I know you won't soon forget last night
Your precious love was all over me, but it's all right
Go on and try again but you know nothing's gonna change
That's the way it's gonna be, oh yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why I don't care
