Why Do I Do? Lyrics by Tyler James

The Unlikely Lad

0

[Intro]
No, no, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Every time I rise and fall
It's when I though I'd seen it all
But my back's still up against the wall
At first it was good to go
Then you turned around and said "no, no"
And as I'm walking out the door, she said:
Did you learn your lesson well?
Don't you go kiss and tell
Is it heaven or is it hell?

[Bridge]
Say it ain't true
I'm just a sucker for you

[Chorus]
Why do I do?
I get on the same old ride
Why do I do?
The things that I know ain't right?
Why do I do?
I trip on the same old lines
Why do I do that to myself? Oh why?

[Verse 2]
Here I go down this road again
Like a fool I keep jumping in
Must be lovin' this punishment
But the day's gonna come around
She'll be calling my name out loud
But the table's gonna turn her down
And I'll say:
Did you learn your lesson well?
D'you feel the pain I felt?
There ain't no hope in hell

[Bridge]
Say it ain't so
But I'm helplessly, hopelessly broke

[Chorus]
Why do I do?
I get on the same old ride
Why do I do?
The things that I know ain't right?
Why do I do?
I trip on the same old lines
Why do I do that to myself? Oh why?

[Verse 3]
Back to front and front to back
The way she's got me tightly wrapped
Around her finger, around her finger
Side to side and up to down
The way she got me spinnin' round
Falling down just to please her
I need her, I breathe her

[Bridge]
I give her all I have
I know it's bad
There ain't no turning back

[Chorus 3x]
Why do I do?
I get on the same old ride
Why do I do?
The things that I know ain't right?
Why do I do?
I trip on the same old lines
Why do I do that to myself? Oh why?
