Why Lyrics by Jamie Foxx

Intuition

2008

[Verse 1]
You are my favorite girl
I was your favorite guy
And somehow I thought that we'd always be down, down
We went through crazy times
Inside this crazy mind
Somehow I thought that you would always be around
Somehow we changed up, we flamed up
And every day you're fighting with me
(Baby, baby, baby)
And then it came up, I asked did you love me
(Baby, do you love me?)
Who knew that would be the last time we speak

[Chorus]
All I could say is why (Why), why (Why), why (Why)
What did I do? What did I say? (Why) I didn't see this coming (Oh, why)
All I can say is why (Why), why (Why), why, why (Why)
For the last two months I was kissing you goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye
Kissing you goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye

[Verse 2]
Behind your lovely eyes (Eyes)
Couldn't see those lovely lies (Lies)
That kept recurring over the course of time
You could unbreak this glass heart
By just saying we're not apart
But how can I go on knowing my love is blind?
So many make-ups, so many break-ups
I never thought I'd see you leave (You leave, you leave)
I'ma put it to rest, 'cause all I want is the best for you
You still haven't told me how I hurt you
So I deserve the answer to

[Chorus]
Why (Why), why (Why), oh why, why
What did I do? What did I say? (Why) I didn't see this coming
All I can say is why (Oh, why) (Why)
Why (Oh why), why, why (Why)
For the last two months I was kissing you goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye
Kissing you goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye

[Bridge]
Oh baby, how can you leave me like this?
Through all the smiles and all the cries
Love we had I thought was the vibe
No, why could you do me like this?
I guess love's questionless and what I've learned this is
There are no real answers to

[Chorus]
Why (Why), why (Why), oh
What did I do? What did I say? I didn't see this coming
Oh why (Why), oh, oh (Why), oh baby, why (Why)
For the last two months I was kissing you goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye
(Baby, why, baby, why)
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, goodbye
(Baby, why; shawty, why)

[Outro]
You are my favorite girl
I was your favorite guy
And somehow I thought that we'd always be down, down
