She felt like Cinderella dressed in white
She wonders why she held onto her pride
"I'm sorry" doesn't always take the pain
She wonders if she'll ever get the chance to love again
Chorus
(Tell me why) Why do we have to hurt?
(Why) Why do we have to cry?
Why do we feel like we're always asking why?
I pray for God to help me through the days that end in why.
Verse 2
He watches all his friends at little league
He'd rather be out playing with the team
But he knows he has some good days, some bad
And today's he's a little weak from the treatments he just had
Chorus
(Tell me why) Why do we have to hurt?
(Why) Why do we have to cry?
Why do we feel like we're always asking why?
I pray for God to help me through the days that end in why.
Bridge
Why is my heart breakin?
Why do children cry?
Why do some "I love yous" end in goodbye?
Chorus
(Tell me why) Why do we have to hurt?
(Why) Why do we have to cry?
Why do we feel like we're always asking why?
I pray for God to help me through the days that end in why.
Oh, tell me why, tell me why, why, why
Tell me why, tell me why
