Why Should It Be You

Lyrics by dmorris (The Cobbler)

She's just a dream
Just another door that you can't open
Just stay away
You know you've been through this before...

But you can't sleep
Can't even breathe when you're without her
Each time the clock goes 'round
Your heart falls down

And you ask yourself just why it should be you
Why you should be the lucky one
You ask yourself what you can give her
When the day is over
Just to show her that it should be you
And when the sunlight falls upon her hair
You say it isn't fair, and you just stare.

And now it's true
Now you're the one that she wakes up with
But it's just like you
To never let it feel just right

So you look away
And you worry on tomorrow
While you let today go by
And your heart just dies

And you ask yourself just why it should be you
Why you should be the lucky one
You ask yourself what you can give her
When the day is over
Just to show her that it should be you
And when another sunlight falls upon her hair
Will you be there? Will she even care?

Will you be there?
When her summer breezes blow...
Her leaves of autumn...
Her hint of winter snow...

And while you're waiting, and a month becomes a year...
Will she care for your lost seasons?
Will she shed a single tear?
