Why is it 

Every time I meet a girl

She's in love 

With someone else 

And why is it 

That my life is in a whirl 

When she is out 

With someone else 

Why is it 

That I care about 

Every word you say 

And just yesterday 

You said we were through  

And why is it 

That I think about you all time 

You're always on my mind 

It won't be long 

And I'm sure that it's right 

But not for you 

And today I'll be okay  

It's just the price 

I have to pay for loving you 

When you come around 

I think of our song 

And it makes a difference to me 

Because every time you hang up

It's a feeling, like a break up 

You take a piece of me
