(i don't know why) but i do

i don't know why i love you but i do

i don't know why i cry so

but i do

i only know i'm lonely

and that i want you only

i don't know why i love you but i do

i can't sleep nights because i feel so restless

i don't know what to do. i feel so helpless

and since you've been away

i cry both night and day

i don't know why i love you but i do

my days have been so lonely

my nights have been so blue

i don't know how i stand it

but i do

each night i sit alone and tell myself

that i will fall in love with someone else

i guess i'm wastin' time

but i've got to clear my mind

i don't know why i love you but i do

i don't know why i love you but i do
