Most of All Why
Gene Watson · Love in the Hot Afternoon & Paper Rosie [2002]
We once were so close now the love light that glows
Has now gone out of our eyes
And a good life life we had for some reasons went bad
And the love that once lived here has died.
How did we get here where did it start
When did we walk out of each other's heart
Where did we lose it how did love die
When, where and how but most of all why.
--- Instrumental ---
Most of all why we did that love die
Like the withering leaves in the fall
And why did we wait till it was too late
To realize how much we lost.
How did we get here where did it start
When did we walk out of each other's heart
Where did we lose it how did love die
When, where and how but most of all why.
When, where and how but most of all why...
