Why - Justin Townes Earle

Maybe it’s a blessing, a blessing in disguise

I know I’ll feel better someday

But right now I’m

Standing in the doorway

I’m slumped against the door frames

Waiting for you to leave before I cry again

Why can’t I tell you a thing?

And why do you always think the worst of me, babe?

And once I was your love and once you was my heart

And there was only you now

Wondering where you are

So what did I say?

When did your heart change?

When did you grow so cold and hard babe?

Why can’t I tell you a thing?

And why do you always think the worst of me, babe?

Darling I

Just don’t understand

What you think that you’re gonna find in a man

Maybe it’s a blessing

I don’t know

Never find out 'til you pack your things and go

So why can’t I tell you a thing?

And why do you always think the worst of me, babe?
