I don't know why
C.N. Blue (씨엔블루) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why, yeah
There was nothing
Mmm
Ay
I gave you my all like you wanted
But you let me fall like I was nothing
I should have known better
I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever
Thought you was the one like Neo
I was Blinded by the thought of you and me though
Played them old school games - Coleco
Vision came back - you for the streets ho
Now it’s done for good, yo finito
Cause I Hate U Bitch, No Z-Ro
Tried to save you from yourself, superhero
Yeah your love not a movie, all B-roll
Just a bunch of filler, a bunch of fluff
Trapped in a thriller and I can’t yell cut
Single teen mom, shoulda gave you up
Shoulda stuck with my mind and never gave two fucks
But I tried my luck and you tried my patience
What’s that old school adage? Yeah the rest is ancient
Came with ya baggage, guess your heart didn’t make it
Thought it was forever, I was sadly mistaken
I gave you my all like you wanted
But you let me fall like I was nothing
I should have known better
I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever
Don’t know why you treat me this way
Don’t know why, begged you to stay
Don’t know why, what more coulda I say
I Don’t know why, I took you back that day
But I can’t blame you, yeah I’m the fool
Shoulda never placed you up on that pedestal
That’s a long way down, leave you battered/bruised
Guess I saw that vision of a better you
Better you? Nah, a better us
But for anything to work y’all trust is a must
Put my trust in a mutt, ain’t that summin’
Bitch was a jump off, word to Budden
Shoulda stuck to fuckin’, no handcuffin'
Ain’t good enough for you, guess no man wasn’t
Still I wish you the best, yea you and ya woman
I would say thanks, but it’s thanks for nothing
I gave you my all like you wanted
But you let me fall like I was nothing
I should have known better
I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah
And I don't know why
I don't know why, yeah




I was in my head
I thought that it could last forever

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to C.N. Blue's song I Don't Know Why featuring Kid N Play revolve around a complicated relationship between two lovers. The song begins with Play explaining that he might have made a mistake, to which Cheryl responds by laughing and teasing that he is entitled to one mistake. Play then reveals that he is scared of getting hurt and cannot trust Cheryl. She questions his intentions, pointing out that they had a lot of good things going on, but Play insists that those days are gone, and he cannot trust Cheryl anymore.


As the song progresses, the couple continues to have a heated conversation, with Play accusing Cheryl of being ungrateful. Cheryl reminds him of all the nights they spent together in the bedroom, and all the plans they had made but Play brings up accusations that Cheryl had cheated on him. The conversation leads nowhere, and they both agree that they do not know why they feel the way they do, and they are unable to reconcile their differences.


Overall, the song is a great example of a couple struggling to find common ground in their relationship. They have strong feelings for each other, but the trust is broken, and they cannot seem to make things work. The song's lyrics are open to interpretation, but they provide a glimpse into the complexities of human relationships.

At least we're still friends...
At least we can still be friends
