Why Is It You?
I don't want you to be the man in my life
'Cause you're the man in her life
I don't want you to be the guy on my mind
'Cause you're the guy on her mind
You don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to waste my time
Everything is clear
So why are we still standing here?
'Cause you know me better than I ever let anyone
Something about you let me let you in
Why did your smile charm me? Your naive words disarm me?
Why did you succeed where so many have failed?
You've got me right where you never wanted me
It's not fair, so why is it true?
Why is it you?
I don't like your chivalry
You won't stop opening doors for me
I stepped through
When I should have run away
Why did you make me stay?
It's just your simple way, and I adore it,
You call me "doll," and - god help me - I love you for it
And you know me better than I ever let anyone
Something about you let me let you in
Why did your smile charm me? Your naive words disarm me?
Why did you succeed where so many have failed?
You've got me right where you never wanted me
It's not fair, so why is it true?
Why is it you?
Maybe this was all for nothing
But babe, I can't complain
I loved every stolen moment
Even though they caused me pain
You know I'll never say I loved in vain
Maybe I just fed your ego
But at least you were flattered
And I guess that's enough for me
Because I guess it means I mattered
And maybe I just needed something
And you happened to be near
But I'm happy that this happened
And I'm grateful you were here
What would I have done if you hadn't been here?
You know me better than I ever let anyone
Something about you let me let you in
Why did your smile charm me? Your naive words disarm me?
Why did you succeed where so many have failed?
You've got me right where you never wanted me
It's not fair, but it's the truest thing I know
I don't have the strength to stay
But I don't have the heart to go
Why couldn't you love me the way I want you to?
The way that I love you -
'Cause I do love you
I do, I do, I do...
You know me better than I ever let anyone
Something about you let me let you in.
