Lyrics for Song: Why Me
Lyrics for Album: Gaia-One Woman's Journey [1997]
Oh don't ask why me, why me, why not me
Why not me is the thing
Don't ask why, life's running by me
Live each moment that it brings
Take the time to smell the roses
Take the time to watch the stars
Take the time to see your child grow
Daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh don't ask why me, why me, why not me
Yes time is going fast
I'm starting to question, what is life's intention
Guess I've been too scared to ask
But I'm letting go, to God in his wisdom
Or whoever that may be
Nobody knows who plans your future
Or decides your destiny
Oh don't say why me
Oh don't say why me
Oh don't say why me
Life does the strangest things
You never know
What each moment can bring
You turn around
Your life has changed
You've got to fight each round
Yes take it on the chin
No don't you ever give in
Oh don't say why me, say "life just try me"
And grow from all your tears
Every obstacle before you
Is a tool to face your fears
Yes, now I know, it's time to slow down
It's the sign to take control
For too many years I've been a victim
But Daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh don't say why me
Oh don't say why me
Oh don't say why me
You've got to fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in
You've got to fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in

Why Me
Olivia Newton-John's 'Why Me' stands as a poignant addition to her later discography, appearing on the 1997 album *Gaia: One Woman's Journey*. Released during a period marked by her return to the spotlight following her retirement, the track reflects her enduring ability to blend classic pop sensibilities with mature songwriting. The recording captures her signature clear vocals and emotive delivery, characteristic of her work from the 1970s and 1980s, yet it resonates with the reflective tone often found in her later years. As part of her extensive catalog, the song exemplifies her commitment to exploring themes of personal reflection and resilience, maintaining the emotional depth that defined her career across decades. |
