Why does the rain fall from the sky?

How can a sugar pill take this pain away?

I should have known that you would break my heart

You've ended something that didn't have a chance to start



Put out the stars

Rub out the sky

Look to the future

Wipe the teardrop from my eye

Shut off the sun

Put out the light

Want you to tell me how you're gonna make it right



Why am I crying over you?

Why?

'Cos there*s nothing else that I can do

Why do I always look a fool?

Why?



Wish I'd read the signs and left you well alone

God, I wanna call you but I can't pick up the phone



Put out the stars

Rub out the sky

Look to the future

Wipe the teardrop from my eye

Shut out the sun

Bring on the night

Want you to show me how you're gonna make it right



Why am I cryin' over you?

Why?

'Cos there's nothing else that I can do

Why do I always look a fool?

Why?

Why am I crying over you?

(Tell me why. Why does the rain fall from the sky?)

Why?

'Cos there's nothing else that I can do

(Why do the tears fall from my eyes?)

Why do I always look a fool?

(Why does the rain fall from the sky?)

Why?

(Oh tell me why)

(Tell me why)
