Well you'd t hink by now my reckless days were over
That running with the crowd would wear me out
With one woman in my pocket and another by my side
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
I've put you in a place that's not so easy
I've made you watch me tear your feelings down
But it leaves me with a questinos that unanswered in you eyes
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
Now once again I'm making you this promise
that I'm gonna keep my love out of the streets
And with all of your heart you're gonna try to keep my honest
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
Yeah when you look at me girl tell me what you're seeing
What do you see beyond these shallow lies
You're so close to the truth but you go on believing
So tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
Now once again I'm making you this promise
That I'm gonna keep my love out of the streets
And with all of your heart you're gonna try to keep me honest
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
Tell me why you love me baby, tell me why
