Don Gates - Why Lyrics




I was 3 when you left me
I was 4 you came back for more
I was 13 going on 20
But still a boy

I was 5 when she told me
You were gone and never coming back
She didn't know what had happened
Or what went wrong

Sp tell me Why did you leave me
And tell me why didn't you come back
I can't remember the day you left me
But I know you did

And tell me why didn't you love me
And tell me why didn't you run back
I can't remember the day you held me
But I know you did

I was 6 and throwing bricks
Then I was 9 and doing crime
I was 30 to life in prison
But still a boy

So tell me why didn't you love me
And tell me why didn't you run back
I can't remember the day you held me
But i know you did

So where'd ya go the day you left me
Did you think of me as time rolled on
I'm pushing 40 in my own prison
But I'm still a boy

So tell me why did you leave me
Tell me why did you come back
I can't remember the day you left me
But I know you did

And tell me why didn't you love me
Tell me why didn't you run back
I can't remember the day you held me
But I know you did

So where'd ya go when you left me
Will you think of me as time rolls on
I'm pushing 40 in my own prison
But I'm still a boy
