It's hard

When a love goes wrong

Picking up the pieces to go on

Our dreams

Are scattered in the wind

I won't let it take me under

Even though you tried and

I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do

It's strange

Strange the way I feel

Time is all I need to make me heal

You're gone

And now I'm all alone (now you're all alone)

I'll reclaim the thunder

Dry the tears I've cried still

I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Now I'm turning my back on confusion

I won't live in a world of illusion

Well the river stopped running through me

You didn't see what you did to me

I've got to try to find some kind of peace of mind

You're just a mystery to me

I'll reclaim the thunder

Dry the tears I've cried still

I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do
