- Why LyricsWhy?
Why?
How many times, do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things, I've done? ooh
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun, yeah
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut?
That's why it hurts so bad, to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth, falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why?
Why?
I may be mad, I may be blind, I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking, ooh
And I've heard it said too many times, that you'd be better off
Besides, why can't you see this boat is sinking?
This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out, turning inside out
Tell me
Why?
Tell me
Why?
This is the book, I never read
These are the words, I never said
This is the path, I'll never tread
These are the dreams, I'll dream instead
This is the joy, that's seldom spread
These are the tears, the tears we shed
This is the fear, this is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years, that we have spent
And this is what they represent
This is how I feel, do you know how I feel?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel
Why?
How many times, do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things, I've done? ooh
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun, yeah
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut?
That's why it hurts so bad, to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth, falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why?
Why?
I may be mad, I may be blind, I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking, ooh
And I've heard it said too many times, that you'd be better off
Besides, why can't you see this boat is sinking?
This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out, turning inside out
Tell me
Why?
Tell me
Why?
This is the book, I never read
These are the words, I never said
This is the path, I'll never tread
These are the dreams, I'll dream instead
This is the joy, that's seldom spread
These are the tears, the tears we shed
This is the fear, this is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years, that we have spent
And this is what they represent
This is how I feel, do you know how I feel?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel
Facts about Why
✔️
Why is written and performed by Annie Lennox.
✔️
It is first released on April 24, 1992 as part of Annie Lennox's album "Diva" which includes 11 tracks in total. This song is the opening track on this album.
✔️
When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Annie Lennox's 'Why' expresses the complete emotional range of a relationship impacted by silence to summarise it in one phrase: a total romantic madness. The broken connection is illustrated in the words of Lennox by the unspoken words' painfulness, unshared feelings, and the fear of submerging in emotional chaos. This highlights the necessity of open and honest communication that could prevent even the worst misunderstandings and the most unpleasant regrets. Why lyrics mainly focus on heartbreak, angst, reflection, anger, and despair. On the other hand, the song's narrative condones the cycle of sorrow and apology, miscommunication, and emotional turmoil. The lyrics portray an emotional struggle and an interpersonal conflict that might not be appropriate for the very young children. Although there are no overt indications of violence, sex, or drug use, the emotional intensity and themes of pain and misunderstanding point to the need for parental guidance.
