Lyrics

Why Is That?

[Chorus]

Why is that

When you look in my eyes

I loose my voice to speak up?

Why is it that

When you hug me

The world is like a dream?

Why is that

When I look in your eyes

I even have no fear, but

Why is that

When you touch me

My heart skips a beat?

[Verse 1]

Why is that

I can't sleep

When I am in bed without you?

Why is that

I can't speak

Whenever your calls don't come through?

Why is that

I can't breath

When you lay your kisses on me?

Why is that

I feel home

Wherever I am right next to you?

[Chorus]

Why is that

When you look in my eyes

I loose my voice to speak up?

Why is it that

When you hug me

The world is like a dream?

Why is that

When I look in your eyes

I even have no fear, but

Why is that

When you touch me

My heart skips a beat?

[Verse 2]

Why is that

You bring hope

Whenever I hang with you?

Your unconditional love

Is making my dreams come true

Why is that

I feel bliss

Whenever I think about you?

Why is that

I believe

Your heart belongs to me too?

[Chorus] x2

Why is that

When you look in my eyes

I loose my voice to speak up?

Why is it that

When you hug me

The world is like a dream?

Why is that

When I look in your eyes

I even have no fear, but

Why is that

When you touch me

My heart skips a beat?
