Lyrics

Why?

Tomorrow is just another day

When I let the sunshine meet my conscience

You told me stories, giving me new ideas

But then only you, you know the answers

I wait longing for you, baby

There's no one around me, wanting me...

Cause you know, and I know, enough to understand

I'm a warm waiting idol, above

Is this what you want?

Do you want a piece of mine?

Tell me now, are you short of cash?

Our thing was made to last

Tell me, tell me now

Tell me why

Yet enough that day is waiting

Love don't mean nothing, 'cause I'm alive, oh...

Hear me out, hear me out, I'm calling, strolling

With an airplane ticket, and nowhere to go, nowhere to go...

Is this what you want?

Do you want a piece of mine?

Tell me now, are you short of cash?

Our thing was made to last

Tell me, tell me now

Tell me now

Is this what you want?

Do you want a piece of mine?

Tell me now, are you short of cash?

Our thing was made to last

Tell me, tell me now

Tell me, tell me now

Tell me, tell me now

Tell me why...
