Why Not Me?

Album: Euphoria (2010)

  • Escaping nights without you with shadows on the wall
    My mind is running wild, tryin' hard not to fall
    You told me that you love me, but say I'm just a friend
    My heart is broken up into pieces

    'Cause I know I'll never free my soul
    It's trapped in between true love and being alone
    When my eyes are closed, the greatest story told
    I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor

    Why, oh, why? Tell me, why not me?
    Why, oh, why? We were meant to be
    Baby, I know I could be all you need
    Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?

    I wanna love you
    If you only knew how much I love you
    So why not me?

    The day after tomorrow, I'll still be around
    To catch you when you fall and never let you down
    You say that we're forever, our love will never end
    I've tried to come up, but it's drowning me to know

    You'll never free my soul
    It's trapped in between true love and being alone
    When my eyes are closed the greatest story told
    I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
    Tell me, baby

    Why, oh, why? Tell me, why not me?
    Why, oh, why? We were meant to be
    Baby, I know I could be all you need
    Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?

    I wanna love you
    If you only knew how much I love you
    So why not me?

    You won't ever know
    How far we can go, go
    You won't ever know
    How far we can go, go

    Why, oh, why? Tell me, why not me?
    Why, oh, why? We were meant to be
    Baby, I know I could be all you need
    Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?

    Why, oh, why? Tell me, why not me?
    Why, oh, why? We were meant to be
    Baby, I know I could be all you need
    Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?

    I wanna love you
    If you only knew how much I love you
    So why not me? (Why not me?) Writer/s: David Quinones, Enrique Iglesias, Erika Nuri, Evan Bogart, Nadir Khayat
