Ooh
We could have had it all,
But you turned your back.

It started with dreams.
It started a team,
But you weren't as true as you always seemed.
You promised to love
No matter what,
Yet you turned your back and walked out on me.

Whta made you think
That without me
Your life would be so much better but now you see
That without me
Your hopes and dreams
Will never be as good as what you had with me.

So tell me why - oh why
Did we end up this way?
And we try - we try
To make everything OK.
Tell me why - oh why
Did you feel you couldn't stay? But we could have stayed together
But you wanted it this way.

You never thought
That I would find out
All of the things you said about us.
When you're the one who
Decided to
Erase all our plans and say you are through.

What made you think
That without me
Your life would be so much better but now you see
That without me
Your hopes and dreams
Will never be as good as what you had with me.

So tell me why - oh why
Did we end up this way?
And we try - we try
To make everything OK.
Tell me why - oh why
Did you feel you couldn't stay? That we could have stayed together
But you wanted it this way.
