Don't know why

I don't know why
the world turns out to be
the way
it is
as time goes by

Oh, I
don't know why
true love turns out to be
the stuff
between
hello - and goodbye

Looking back
with 20/20 hindsight
we only tried to play our part
When selfishness is state of the art
you've just got to change the locks on your heart

No, I
don't know why
true love turns out to be
the stuff
between
hello - and goodbye

Looking back
with 20/20 hindsight
we only did the best we could
As green as any Norwegian Wood
the acid test of fame we withstood

Now I
don't know why
the world turns out to be
the way
it is
as time goes by

Oh, I
don't know why
true love turns out to be
the stuff
between
hello - and goodbye
