WHY GIRL
w&m by Dana Countryman

I thought we had a good thing
I thought we had a love
that could stand the test of time
I guess that was just a nice dream
And I don’t want to know,
but I need to ask you
why’d you do this thing?
Oh, tell me why’d you throw our love away?
Oh, why’d you do it?
Look me in the eyes right now,
I gotta ask you face to face

Won’t you tell me, why girl,
Did you have to go and tell me such a lie, girl?
Tell me why, girl
Won’t you tell me why, girl?
Did you have to go and kiss some other guy, girl?
Tell me why, won’t you tell me why?
Did you really think I’d never know?
Never thought that you would ever stoop this low
That’s why I’m telling you goodbye,
And now you know the reason why, girl

I guess I should have known, girl
I should’ve seen that far-away look
there in your eyes,
when we were all alone, girl
You said you really loved me,
but now I realize
that all those words of love
you said were never really true
Oh, why’d you say ‘em?
How I wish we’d never met
Why did I fall in love with you?

Won’t you tell me, why girl,
Did you have to go and tell me such a lie, girl?
Tell me why, girl
Won’t you tell me why, girl?
Did you have to go and kiss some other guy, girl?
Tell me why, won’t you tell me why?
Did you really think I’d never know?
Never thought that you would ever stoop this low
That’s why I’m telling you goodbye,
And now you know the reason why, girl

Did you really think I’d never know?
Never thought that you would ever stoop this low
That’s why I’m telling you goodbye,
And now you know the reason why, girl
Oh, won’t you tell me why, girl
How could you do it, tell me, why girl
Oh, won’t you tell me why, girl

about

Dana Countryman Seattle, Washington

This artist remains a mystery. He never performs live in concert, these days. Deeply allergic to hip-hop and most modern radio sounds, he stays happy in his retro pop world.
