Promises meant the world to me   When they were plans of what our love would bring   I couldn't wait for the time to see   Your promises became reality   But then one day things weren't the same   I tried to figure out what changed   Next day, you weren't there with me   A sense of loneliness I couldn't believe      You told me that you would always love me   How could you break this promise to me, baby?   So why did you have to leave?   Me with the wrong impression   Now all I do is question      Why   Did you have to break my heart? (Break my heart)   Why (why, why)   Did our love fall apart, boy? (Boy)   Why (Why)   Did everything seem so right just (Ooh)   Tell me baby, won't you tell me   Why   Did you give up on loving me? (Loving me)   Why   When you had everything you needed? (thing you needed, yeah)   Why   How did our love just disappear?   Tell me baby, won't you tell me   Why      Can you explain why you would up and leave   When all seemed well between you and me   Don't understand how you could let this be   A life without you being here with me   I can't believe that you are gone   What could I have possibly done wrong   I've never hurt or caused any pain   That would make you leave me this way   Oh, baby      You told me that you would always love me   How could you break this promise to me, babe?   So why did you have to leave?   Me with the wrong impression   Now all I do is question      Why (Why, ooh, yeah)   Did you have to break my heart?    Why    Did our love fall apart, boy? (why, did it fall apart boy)   Why    Did everything seem so right just   Tell me baby, won't you tell me   Why (why)   Did you give up on loving me? (baby)   Why (tell me why)   When you had everything you needed?    Why (how am i)   How did our love just disappear? (baby, please tell me)   Tell me baby, won't you tell me       Why   Did you have to break my heart? (oo and why!)   Why    Did our love fall apart, boy? (our love just fall apart, boy)   Why    Did everything seem so right just (you gotta tell me, gotta tell me)   Tell me baby, won't you tell me    Why (Oooh, why)   Did you give up on loving me? (yeah)   Why (oh why)   When you had everything you needed? (yeah!)   Why (why, yeah!)    How did our love just disappear?    Tell me baby, won't you tell me (woah, ooh!)   Why      I had given my all to you   Without knowing that one day soon (one day soon)   You would take away from me (take away)   What had meant the world to me (ooo)   Didn't all the promises   You made to me   About our love   Mean anything   And I can't believe that you and me   Are not to be    So can you tell me      Why   Did you have to break my heart?    Why   Did our love fall apart, boy?    Why    Did everything seem so right just    Tell me baby, won't you tell me (oooh, why)   Why    Did you give up on loving me? (oooh, why)   Why    When you had everything you needed? (oooh, why)   Why   How did our love just disappear?    Tell me, oh baby, won't you tell me       Why   Did you have to break my heart? (did you have to)   Why    Did our love fall apart, boy? (did love fall)   Why    Did everything seem so right just (everything was so right)   Tell me baby, won't you tell me (so tell me why)   Why    Did you give up on loving me? (loving me)   Why (why)   When you had everything you needed? (coz everything)   Why (oh!)   How did our love just disappear? (yeah, yeah)   Tell me baby, won't you tell me (baby)   Why
