Karaoke Why

You must have been in a place so dark you couldn't feel the light
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
This can't be the way you meant to draw a crowd
Oh why?
That's what I keep asking
Was there anything
I could have said or done?
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
God only knows what went wrong
And why you'd leave the stage in the middle of a song
Mmm
Now in my mind I'll keep you frozen as a seventeen year old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion no matter what the game
When you took the stage you shined just like the sun
Oh why?
That's what I keep asking
Was there anything
I could have said or done?
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
Oh God only knows what went wrong
And why you'd leave the stage in the middle of a song yeah yeah
Now the oak trees a swaying in the early autumn breeze
The golden sun is shining on my face
The tangled thoughts I hear the mocking bird sing
This old world really ain't that bad a place
Oh I there's no comprehending and who am I to try to judge or explain
Ooh but I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasn't worth the fight?
They were wrong they lied
Now you're gone and we cry
'Cos it's not like you to walk away in the middle of a song
Your beautiful song
Your absolutely beautiful song
