Why Not Me

Enrique Iglesias · Other Songs - Enrique Iglesias

Escaping nights without you with shadows on the wall

My mind is running wild tryin hard not to fall

You told me that you love me but say I'm just a friend

my heart is broken up into pieces



Cos i know i'll never free my soul

it's trapped between true love and being alone

When my eyes are closed the greatest story told

I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor



Why oh why tell me why not me

Why oh why we were meant to be

Baby i know i could be all you need

Why oh why oh why



I wanna love you

if you only knew how much i love you

So why not me



The day after tomorrow I'll still be around

To catch you when you fall and ever let you down

you say that we're forever our love will never end

I've tried to come up but it's drowning me to know

you'll never feel my soul

It's trapped between true love and being alone

when my eyes are closed the greatest story told

i woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor



Tell me baby why oh why tell me why not me

Why oh why we were meant to be

Baby i know i could be all you need

why oh why oh why



I wanna love you

if you only knew how much i love you

So why not me



You won't ever know

How far we can go

You won't ever know

How far we can go (go)



Why oh why tell me why not me

why oh why we were meant to be

Baby I know I could be all you need

Why oh why oh why



Why oh why tell me why not me

Why oh why we were meant to be

Baby I know I could be all you need

Why oh why oh why oh why



I wanna love you

If you only knew how much I love you

so why not me

why not me, why not me
