Why Does It Have to Be Me?

Tony Bennett

Why, why, why can't your careless heart be true
Cry, cry, cry seems that's all I ever do
Why, why, why can't you lie to someone new
Why does it have to be me

If you must hurt someone by lying constantly
Why does it have to be me
And if you give somebody's heart a trying time
Why does it have to be mine

Why, why, why can't your careless heart be true
Cry, cry, cry seems that's all I ever do
Why, why, why can't you lie to someone new
Why does it have to be me

Each time you ask my heart to answer your caress
Why must I always say yes
And if someone has to love you 'til eternity
Why does it have to be me

Why, why, why can't your careless heart be true
Cry, cry, cry seems that's all I ever do
Why, why, why can't you lie to someone new
Why does it have to be me
