It's 3AM and I finally say
I'm sorry for actin' that way
I didn't really mean to make you cry
Oh, baby, sometimes I wonder why

Does it always have to come
Down to you leavin'
Before I'll say "I love you"?
Why do I always use the words that
Cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you?
Oh, baby, why do I do that to you?

I know I'd never let you walk away
So why do I push you 'til you break?
And why are you always on
The verge of goodbye
Before I'll show you how
I really feel inside?

Does it always have to come
Down to you leavin'
Before I'll say "I love you"?
Why do I always use the words that
Cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you?
Oh, baby, why do I do that to you?
Why does it always have to
Come down to you leavin'
Before I'll say "I love you"?
And why do I always use the
Words that cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you?
Oh, baby, why do I do that to you?
Why do I do that to you?

Why do I always use the
Words that cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you?
Oh, baby, why do I do that to you?
Why do I do that to you?
Why do I do that to you?
