I.I.I.I.I.I..I  tried so hard..(tell me why.)
 to make you stay..(tell me why.)
 now it doesn't  matter..(tell me why.)
 what happens from day  to day..(tell me why.)
 I sit alone, with tears in my eyes..
 oooh, tell  me..please tell me, why.
Nights  seem so long..(tell me why.)
 since youve been gone..(tell me why.)
 I wonder why..(tell  me why.)
 the feelin' still lingers  on..(tell me why.)
 I sit alone, with tears in my eyes..
 please tell  me..please tell me, why.
 (Ba, ba, ba, ba.)black  dirt under my feet..
 (Ba, ba, ba, ba.)
 storm clouds over my head..
 (Ba, ba, ba, ba.)
All  I do, each and every night, is just weep in my
 lonely bed..(ba,  ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.)
 I sit alone  with tears in my eyes..
 please tell  me..please tell me why.
Please..tell..me..whhyyyy....please  tell me, why.
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
