Love is a hunger
That burns in my soul
But you never notice the pain
Love is an anchor
That won't let me go
I reach out to hold you
But you push me away
You always convince me to stay

And I wonder why
We hold on with tears in your eyes
And I wonder why
We have to break down to make things all right
And I wonder why
I can't seem to tell you goodbye
Yeah I wonder why

I'm no angel
With my selfish pride
But I love you more everyday
Love is an anger
That builds up inside
As tears of frustration
Roll down my face
Why does love always have to turn out this way

And I wonder why
We hold on with tears in your eyes
And I wonder why
We have to break down to make things all right
And I wonder why
I can't seem to tell you goodbye
Yeah I wonder why

I don't want to fight again tonight
About the little things please baby
I just want to find my way
Back to love
And I need to look, baby

And I wonder why
We hold on with tears in your eyes
And I wonder why
We have to break down to make things all right
And I wonder why
I can't seem to tell you goodbye
Yeah I wonder why

And I wonder why
We hold on with tears in your eyes
And I wonder why
We have to break down to make things all right
And I wonder why
I can't seem to tell you goodbye
Yeah I wonder why
