The Reason Why - The Byrds

If I was strong then I wouldn’t care

If she was here or she was there

But I guess I didn’t go by the rules

'cause she really made me look like a fool

I shouldn’t have let it hurt me at all

'cause I know the price you pay when you fall

But I couldn’t believe it was true

When she told me we were through

And the reason why I cry

I wish I knew

My friends told me about her

When they saw me hold her hand

But I didn’t think they knew her

So how could they understand

I couldn’t hear a word they were saying

'cause inside my head the music was playing

But I found out it was all true

When she told me we were through

And the reason why I cry

I wish I knew

I couldn’t hear a word they were saying

'cause inside my head the music was playing

But I found out it was all true

When she told me we were through

And the reason why I cry

I wish I knew

Oh yeah I wish I knew

Oh yeah I wish I knew
