“It's three A.M. and I finally say I'm sorry for acting that way I didn't really mean to make you cry Oh baby, sometimes I wonder why Does it always have to come down To you leaving Before I'll say I love you Why do I always use the words That cut the deepest When I know how much it hurts you Oh baby why, do I do that to you I know I'd never let you walk away So why do I push you 'til you break And why are you always on the verge of good-bye Before I'll show you how I really feel inside Why do I always use the words that cut the deepest When I know how much it hurts you Oh baby why, do I do that to you Why do I do that to you”
