I promised myself I'd never fall for you Because time has taught me what you would do 'Cause I waited for you through the sorrow and pain But you played me a fool, a fool in the rain And I ask why Why did you forget me? Why did you regret me? And I scream "Why?" Was I a mistake you couldn't erase? Tell me the truth Tell me the truth You promised yourself you'd never fall for me You said one day, your tears would fall from deceit I couldn't wait for you because it hurt me so much And now you're gone, now you're gone, now you're gone And I ask why Why did I love you? Nothing but trouble And I scream "Why?" Was I a mistake you couldn't erase? Tell me the truth Tell me the truth
