Why Lyrics - American Idol

[Mary J Blige] 

I've been logging in my bed, running til my eyes are red 

We both said that things will change 

But it's still the same shade of gray 

I get mad you walk away 

When it all just start to fade 

I know you're fed up so am I 

But we just can't say goodbye 

Boy, you know I love 

But I just can't go on no more 

Feelin this way 

[Chorus] 

You got me sayin' why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right? 

Just can't get it right 

Don't know why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right 

No matter how hard we try 

[Rick Ross] 

I got her looking at me sideways 

Live every night like it's a Friday 

My conversations are so monumental 

Licking on her ear, I'm whispering a couple riddles 

She fell in love with my technique 

I made her call me boss when in the bedsheets 

We both coming from the same place 

All in her both coming at the same place 

Still on my dope boy swag 

Top down on my Cam'ron, Oh boy swag 

Played the hand we were dealt from the beginning, baby 

You the dealer, cut the deck, while we winning baby 

[Chorus] 

Got me sayin' why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right? 

Just can't get it right 

Don't know why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right 

No matter how hard we try 

[Mary J Blige] 

Can't we turn love around 

We build it up to break it down 

If you knew the way I feel 

You would know that this love is real 

But live in heaven, go to hell then 

Go right back, across the lesson 

Tired of stressin', get the message 

I can't live in this depression no more 

Boy, you know I love you 

But I just can't go on feeling like this no more 

[Chorus] 

Got me sayin' why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right? 

Just can't get it right 

Don't know why, why, why? 

Can't we get it right 

No matter how hard we try 

Back on my own again
