Why, why, why, don't you ever stop by
You used to every day
You wouldn't always stay
But at least you would say
You'd say hi
But things have changed
You've got a boyfriend
I guess he's set the rules
You can't see me
I might be wrong but it seems to me
You could do better cause you're not happy
Why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
Why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
Why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
Why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
I know you're hoping that he's the one
But since you got with him
You just stopped having fun
I'm just a friend but the way I see
You could have more fun with someone like me
I, I, I remember how
Your eyes would shine
And everyone once in a while
Even though we were just friends
I kinda wish, I kinda wish you were mine
Hey baby, it might not be my business
But I really thought I should share
I can see something's wrong
Cause you used to be strong
Now it don't make no difference to you
You don't care
Don't wanna see you cry no more baby
When all you used to do is smile (yeah)
Just kiss yourself and move on
(Kiss yourself)
You can be strong
You can be strong, be strong
Why, baby why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
Why
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
So if you need somebody to talk to
I'll be there
Pick up the phone
(Ring)
And should you leave him
Don't you know you'll never be
Never be alone
Cause I've always wanted you baby
Oh yea and baby even if
You don't want me
Oh, I could still be your friend
Just get away from him
There are better fishies in the sea
Why (baby why)
Why does it look like you're gonna cry (you always used to)
When you used to be so happy
Why (I see you smile)
Why does it look like you're gonna cry (just like a child)
When you used to be so happy
Why (oh why)
Why does it look like you're gonna cry
When you used to be so happy
Why (baby why)
Why does it look like you're gonna cry (gonna cry)
When you used to be so happy
