Wherefor And Why Lyrics - Gord's Gold - Gordon Lightfoot

When I woke this mornin', 

Something inside of me told me 

This would be my day 

I heard the morning train, 

I felt the wind change, 

Too many times I'm on my way 

 

Come on sunshine, what can you show me 

Where can you take me to make me understand 

The wind can shake me, brothers forsake me 

The rain can touch me, but can I touch the rain 

 

And then I saw the sunrise above the cotton sky like a candycane delight 

I saw the milkman, I saw the business man, I saw the only road in sight 

Then I got to thinkin' what makes you want to go, to know the wherefore 

and the why 

So many times now, oh Lord I can't remember if it's September or July 

 

Then all at once it came to me, I saw the wherefore, and you can see it if you try 

It's in the sun above, it's in the one you love, you'll never know the reason why
