Why Do I Love You
Metafour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If loving you only mean
Bitter thoughts that you are near
And yet so far

Why do I love you
If loving you only mean
Sleepless nights for swopes and dreams
On loving you oh

What more can I do
But to dream of you oh
Cause only there I can hold you
Close to me

Why do I love you
Why did you hurt my heart then away
Why did you take my love away
But do I keep on waiting
And hoping yet I know
That you could never be mine again

Why do I longed for
In tenderness of your kiss
The warmth of your touch
Is all I wish
But your so far

What more can I do
But to dream of you
Cause only there I can hold you
Close to me

Why do I love you
Why did you hurt my heart then away
Why did you take my love away
What do I keep on waiting
And hoping yet I know
That you could never be mine again

Why did you take my love away
Why do I keep on waiting




And hoping yet I know
That you could never be mine again...
