Why Baby Why - Mickey Guyton

Your suitcase is gone, with all of your things

Our old picture frames are empty

I burned all your letters, I took off your ring

But what can I do with these memories

Keeping me up 'til the dawn, hanging on like you’re coming back

But you ain’t coming back

So tell me why, baby, why, baby

Why, baby, why won’t you let me let go?

I try try, baby, try, baby, try

But your love just won’t leave me alone

I can’t stop the hurt, numb the pain

Cool the burn, kill the ache

No matter how hard that I

Cry, baby, cry

Why, baby, why?

I close my eyes when I kiss his lips

Praying this time I will see you

I’m real good at lying to everyone else

But I just can’t lie to myself

When the truth is a shadow that follows me

Haunting me just like a ghost, if you’re just a ghost

So tell me why, baby, why, baby

Why, baby, why won’t you let me let go?

I try try, baby, try, baby, try

But your love just won’t leave me alone

I can’t stop the hurt, numb the pain

Cool the burn, kill the ache

No matter how hard that I

Cry, baby, cry

Why, baby, why?

I saw your taillights fade into the dark

And my head knows but there’s no convincing my heart

So tell me why, baby, why, baby

Why, baby, why won’t you let me let go?

I try try, baby, try, baby, try

But your love just won’t leave me alone

I can’t stop the hurt, numb the pain

Cool the burn, kill the ache

No matter how hard that I

Cry, baby, cry

Why, baby, why?
