Why Lyrics - Coming Home - Lionel Richie

It's been this many years 

It's been that many years 

And still have to ask the same question 

Why? 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When you and me would kiss at night 

Remember what we tripped like 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say

Funny me, funny you 

Don't have nothing lft in common 

You wanted me to have your heart 

Now you want it back 

What about the promise you made to me 

That you wouldn't trade the key in for no damn reason 

And suddenly we're flying high 

Now it's Mayday we're falling fast 

You're trying to get lost 

I'm trying to pull up 

And damn I can't say 

You said you didn't need me 

I really didn't think that you would leave me 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When you and me would kiss at night 

Remember what we tripped like 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When we were saying things like where have you been all my life 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Now the kids are looking at me like I'm to blame 

No longer got their respect for me 

Don't want to hear what I'm saying 

I know how it feels to be ashamed 

Cause when I was young I felt that pain too 

And I can't say nothing that would cause you to make a change 

And that's the reason that we're going our separate ways 

Then who am I fooling 

What am I doing thinking you love me 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When you and me would kiss at night 

Remember what we tripped like 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When we were saying things like where have you been all my life 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

You would think by this time I would get it right 

Know the schemes and the things that make it be right 

When you said you could stay no longer 

I thought I had just a little more daylight 

LIke when we use to turn a fight into a good night 

I know the things I use to do to make you feel right 

I would give anything the fortune I made 

To bring back the days that the feeling was so right 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When you and me would kiss at night 

Remember what we tripped like 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When we were saying things like where have you been all my life 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When you and me would kiss at night 

Remember what we tripped like 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Why don't it feel like it felt on the first night 

When we were saying things like where have you been all my life 

Why don't it feel like felt on the first night 

Now it's so hard to find two words to say 

Why the dreams we had we threw them all away 

Why the dreams we had we let them slip away
