WH Y?
I'm nere crying, wondering why. Why you had to leave me here all alone.
With my question unanswered and my heart filled with unspoken words.
I'm wondering ..... Why? My heart is broken with such a shock.
I'm wondering ..... Why? My nights are sad and my days are long.
i'm wondering ..... Why? Wishing you were here to cheer r::a up
ancJ comfort me.
But, now I know you are gone to a better place. So there's no reason for me to wonder why. I LOVE YOU ...
