Tell Me Why
babiixjenii Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Its been a couple of months since you left my heart behind
cryin` all my tears out as my eyes becomin` blind
nothing feels the same cuhz i`m so used to being held
friends would be concerned of me but never would i tell
that i was gettin` hurt by the only one i ever loved
the one who was created to be sent to me from above
i still don`t know what went wrong, or why we had to end
not only were you my baby but you were my best friend
and now it seems like i`ve lost everything i ever had
everything worth livin` for, flyin away from my hands
livin` everyday, questioning myself the same thing
you left without a reason, left me here reminicin

remember the days we used to share
when you told me that always nd forever you would care
now you left me alone, holding on to the fone
hopin` things would go bacc to how it was long ago
tell me why
what made you decide to leave me bacc
tell me why
there was nothing that you, you didn`t have
tell me why

bacc when we was younger, we both each made a promise
tellin` each other that we would always be honest
of how we felt, what we thought, and soon that day came
you took my hand, asked me out, and walked together in the rain
we spent hours on the fone, we were close like white on rice
playin around, asking me to one day be your wife
when they saw you, they saw me standing right next to you
matchin` everyday, matchin` clothes, matchin` hat and shoes
always dedicating songs we hear to each other
always thinking that all of those days would last forever
tell me why everything had to come to this
you dont understand, there`s so much things that i miss

remember the days we used to share
when you told me that always nd forever you would care
now you left me alone, holding on to the fone
hopin` things would go bacc to how it was long ago
tell me why
what made you decide to leave me bacc
tell me why
there was nothing that you, you didn`t have
tell me why

whatever happened to the promises you made
whatever happened to the future you wanted to create
now it`s all down the drain, all the time we spent, wasted
whenever we had problems, we had always fixed and saved it
so why the change of heart, tell me why are we apart
when you had told me before that you loved me since the start
tell me why you suddenly wanna leave our past behind
baby all i`m asking you is to please tell me why
(tell me why, tell me why)

theres so much pain for me to hide inside
but you don`t even notice so theres no use to hide
i miss the feeling u gave me wen you looked into my eyes
and now when i remember the moment all i do is cry
the day you left, baby, you took my dreams with you
i can`t even rebuild them cuhz i`m standin alone without you
stop giving me all the stories, cuhz i know that they're lies
jus open your heart, look into my eyes, and tell me why

remember the days we used to share
when you told me that always nd forever you would care
now you left me alone, holding on to the fone
hopin` things would go bacc to how it was long ago
tell me why
what made you decide to leave me bacc
tell me why
there was nothing that you, you didn`t have
tell me why
remember the days we used to share
when you told me that always nd forever you would care
now you left me alone, holding on to the fone
hopin` things would go bacc to how it was long ago
tell me why
what made you decide to leave me bacc
tell me why




there was nothing that you, you didn`t have
tell me why

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to babiixjenii's song "Tell Me Why" express the pain and confusion of losing someone who was not only a lover but also a best friend. The singer reminisces about the happy times they shared, from the promises they made when they were younger to the moments they spent together before the breakup. The chorus repeats the plea for an explanation, with the singer asking over and over again, "Tell me why?" The verses reveal the depth of the singer's despair, as they cry out for the love they had and how it was all taken away.


The song is clearly about heartbreak and the aftermath, with the singer struggling to make sense of their emotions. They are left with questions and few answers, and the pain of trying to move on without their former partner is almost too much to bear. However, despite the sadness and grief expressed in the lyrics, there is also a note of hope at the end of the song. The singer asks their ex to be honest with them, to look into their eyes and tell them why they left. It is a plea for closure, a final attempt to understand what went wrong and to find a way forward.
