Why Not Me? Lyrics
Escape the nights without you
With shadows on the wall
My mind is running wild
Trying hard not to fall
You tell me that you love me
But say I'm just a friend
My heart is broken up into pieces 'cause I know
I'll never free my soul
It's trapped in between through love and being alone
When my eyes are closed
The greatest story told
Awoke, and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
Why, oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
I wanna love you
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?
The day after tomorrow
I'll still be around
To catch you when you fall
And never let you down
You say that we're forever
Our love will never end
I've tried to come up
But it's drowning me to know
You'll never feel my soul
It's trapped in between through love and being alone
When my eyes are closed
The greatest story told
Awoke, and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
Tell me, baby
Why, oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
I wanna love you
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?
You won't ever know
How far we can go, go
You won't ever know
How far we can go, go
Why, oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
Why, oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
I wanna love you
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?
With shadows on the wall
My mind is running wild
Trying hard not to fall
You tell me that you love me
But say I'm just a friend
My heart is broken up into pieces 'cause I know
I'll never free my soul
It's trapped in between through love and being alone
The greatest story told
Awoke, and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?
I'll still be around
To catch you when you fall
And never let you down
You say that we're forever
Our love will never end
I've tried to come up
But it's drowning me to know
You'll never feel my soul
It's trapped in between through love and being alone
The greatest story told
Awoke, and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
Why, oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?
How far we can go, go
You won't ever know
How far we can go, go
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
Tell me, why not me?
Why, oh, why
When we're meant to be?
Baby, I know I could be all you need
Why, oh, why?
Oh, why?
If you only knew
How much I love you
So, why not me?

This is such a beautiful song, and to me its about wanting someone you just can't or never will have.
This is song really does get to me, and its like exactly how i feel about a certain person.
"When my eyes are closed The greatest story told Awoke, and my dreams are shattered here on the floor"
To me this is like when I dream about what it could be like, looking back on a past memory when I was happy with her, or a recent memory of us together yet only to wake and the relise its never gonna be. Why not me? :(
I know exactly what you mean, this is my life right now as well.

Thanks for the reply, haven't listened to this in so long. Life got better, although "she" wasn't the reason. Sad yet happy as another avenue was opened and I've not looked back until reading this.

This song is too touchy. I am 21 and I love this girl in college so much. I care about her. Most of the time I think about her.I felt like I would not find my dream girl, but when I saw her, got to know her in my bones, I could feel that she is the one. But she is not in love but says that she loves me. just like in the lyrics, which scattered my dreams of being with my dream girl.
When you are really in love with somebody and they take you as a friend, it really hurts.????????????
