Tell Me Why
Silent Circle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me why, tell me more,
Take the chance you had never before
Tell me why waste our time
It is more than a fugitive sign

You have struck into my life
Like a flash from the sky
You can't hide what's on your mind

But I know you're too shy
You, you have changed my mind
How could I've been so blind
Strange what you do with me. Now you're my destiny
Don't you feel but time has come to show your love
Tell me why, tell me more,
Take the chance you had never before

Right in time you changed my life,
Changed the way that I feel
We don't care what people say
'Cause we know what is real
Life will not be the same, now it's no longer a game
We could believe it's true
I would stand together with you
Don't you feel but time has come to show your love...

You, you have changed my mind
How could I've been so blind

Strange what you do with me. Now you're my destiny
Don't you feel but time has come to show your love...
