Why Me

Michael Bolton · All That Matters [1997]

(Why me, why me, why me?)



I wake up while you lie sleepin'

I take one look at you and wonder

Am I still dreamin'

Are you some kind of angel

Come down to save me

Or just some place my imagination's tryin' to take me

Oh, what have I done to deserve what I feel

You give me somethin' that'stoo good to be real

How does a treasure like you fall into my hands

I need to know just one thing

I still don't understand



CHORUS:

Why do you love me

Why do you give so much

How do you heal the pain within me

Is it the power of your touch?

Now that you've opened up the heavens

For this heart of mine to see

I've become the richest man that I could ever be

Baby, why, baby, why me



(Why me) why me (why me) why me?



I ain't got a clue, maybe just a notion

Sometimes I'm helplessly adrift out in the ocean

I feel like a child with one sole intention

In search of an answer that defies all comprehension



I'm, I'm in too deep but that's what you're all about, yeah

Got no hope or desire of finding my way out

How does a treasure like you fall into my hands

I need to know that one thing

Can you help me understand



CHORUS



Could've been anyone in this world, why me

Every lesson that I've learned

You've come to me and shown me

What it means to be loved

What it means to be loved



CHORUS



Baby, why,baby, why me, (why me), why me, (why me), why me

Help me understand just what you've done to me

(I'm the richest man that I could ever be)

I'm the richest man that I could ever be



Tell me why, tell me why, baby

Tell me why, tell me why, baby...
