I Wonder Why

I'm tired of fighting, got a fever
When you try to get out (out, out, out)
I've tried but I can't understand
What all the fuss is about
I wish that I could be the man
That you wanted me to be
I need you to see

[Chorus]
I try and I try yet I can't seem to fly
My soul full of pain when you cry
I wish I was perfect and God knows I try
But everything I do just tears your heart in two
I wonder why

I never thought that being lovers
Meant that we can't be friends
If only I could understand what makes you stay
And stop breaking free from me
I wonder why

[Chorus]

Can't you see it's killing me
It's not the way things used to be
Can you remember yesterday
We used to smile without a care
Whenever you and I were near
Can't you see that I wanna be with you

Oh baby

Oh, oh, oh everything I do
Tears your heart in two

[Chorus: x2]
