I Know Why

[Verse 1]

They say love keeps on growin'

It's the one thing that I've felt I've always known

'Cause it wouldn't matter where you're goin'

'Cause where you are is where I wanna go

[Chorus]

I know why the heart gets lonely

Every time you give your love away

And if you think that you are only

A shadow in the wind

Blowin' 'round but when

You let somebody in

They might fade away

[Verse 2]

Tell me why the road keeps turnin'

When everything you want is straight ahead

And everything I thought worth learning

Is forgotten when I see your face instead

[Chorus]

I know why the heart gets lonely

Every time you give your love away

And if you think that you are only

A shadow in the wind

Blowin' 'round but when

You go and let somebody in

They might fade away

[Bridge]

Oh, you say it's so overrated

Holdin' on to yesterday

Along the way

It can get too complicated to stay

[Chorus]

I know why the heart gets lonely

Every time you give your love away

If you think that you are only

A shadow in the wind

You better think again

I know why the heart gets lonely

Every time you give your love away

And if you think that you are only

Feathers in the wind

Blowin' 'round but when

You let somebody in

They might fade away

Fade away
