Tell Me Why 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Take a deep breath in. Just for a moment. It's an odd thing: Breathing. Such a little action, Yet such a great impact. So tell me why, Of all the things, You take my breath away. Feel your pulse, Just for a moment, Do you feel the beat? It's a critical melody, A beautiful rhythm. So tell me why, Of all the things, You make my heart skip a beat. Think about something. Something you don't quite understand, Knowledge unknown. It's what we don't know, What we can't wrap our heads around, That's what drives us insane. Knowing enough, But not everything. You had to show me something new, Something I don't quite understand. So tell me why, Of all the things, You make my mind go crazy. Say something. Something you can't seem to get out. We have the power to speak our minds, Yet seldom express what is really felt. There are few things I will hesitate to declare: I am wrong, I don't know, Or I love you. So tell me why, Of all the things, You had to make me love you.
