You don't know what's right anymore

You think your love is just a score

Are you too young or afraid to grow up?

You can work this out if you both try

It's hard to cheat but harder to lie

Is this what you want or just a passing thought?



Maybe you should think about it

Before you go and break her heart

Maybe you need more time to decide



Ask yourself "what for?

What for, what for, what for?"



You painted a picture she wanted to see

You can laugh this one off but it's not funny

She's given you everything she has

Oh oh



Maybe you should think about it

Before you go and break her heart

Maybe you need more time to decide



Ask yourself, "what for?

What for, what for, what for?"



You wanted her and you got her

But you're still so careless with your words

If you let her go, she'll move on

Find someone, she's never coming back

How can you live with that?



Maybe you should think about it

Before you go and break her heart

Maybe you need more time to decide

So you should think about it some more



Ask yourself, "what for?"

(I know it sounds like the same old line)

What for?

(I know it seems like the same old guy)

What for?

(Maybe I don't know how to treat you right)

What for?

(Maybe you'll meet someone to know your life)

What for?

(You said I lied since the day we met)

What for?

(But I meant every word I said)

What for?

(Someday you'll miss every single day we spent)

What for?
