I'm not gonna stand in your way,
Or I might have to pay,
For that.
Why not go ask you why?
Walk to your heart,
And at least give it a try.

[Chorus]
Why not? Why try?
Why give it away?
I'm not gonna listen to them anymore,
Run away and slam the door.
Some how, somewhere.
Some day.
Sit at home, I'll cry or run,
Or stay up with you,
till half past one.

I'll go over to your place,
See that happy smile on you face.
You'll sing me to sleep,
But dont say anything,
Because talk is cheap.

[Chorus]
Why not? Why try?
Why give it away?
I'm not gonna listen to them anymore,
Run away and slam the door.
Some how, somewhere.
Some day.
Sit at home, I'll cry or run,

Or stay up with you,
Till half past one.

I'll get closer
You'll whisper in my ear,
We'll run away,
We'll get outta here...

[Chorus]
Why not? Why try?
Why give it away?
I'm not gonna listen to them anymore,
Run away and slam the door.
Some how, somewhere.
Some day.
Sit at home, I'll cry or run,
Or stay up with you,
till half past one.
Why not? Why try?
(Try)
Why give it away?
I'm not gonna listen to them anymore,
Run away and slam the door.
Some how, somewhere.
Some day.
Sit at home, I'll cry or run,
Or stay up with you till...
Half past one.
(half past one, half past one,
half past one, half past one)
