I Don’t Know Why Lyrics

Shawn Colvin

S. colvin
I dont know why
The sky is so blue
And I dont know why
Im so in love with you
But if there were no music
Then I would not get through
I dont know why
I know these things, but I do
I dont know why
But somewhere dreams come true
And I dont know where
But there will be a place for you
And every time you look that way
I would lay down my life for you
I dont know why
I know these things, but I do
I dont know why
But some are going to make you cry
And I dont know how
But I will get you by, I will try
Theyre not trying to cause you pain
Theyre just afraid of loving you
I dont know why
I know these things, but I do
I dont know why
The trees grow so tall
And I dont know why
I dont know anything at all
But if there were no music
Then I would not get through
I dont know why
I know these things, but I do
I dont know why
I know these things, but I do
