[Intro] Why don’t ya? [Verse 1] You’ve played fast your whole life Time to play slow   You’ve always reached so high Because you feel so low   [Pre-Chorus] You said that you’re all mine    So where did you go?   I see what you’ve done You think you’re happy being numb [Chorus] Why don’t ya cry?                       (Ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah) Feel broken-hearted for the dearly departed Why don’t ya cry?                       (Ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah) Your heart’s desire burned out like a fire   [Verse 2] Show me the real As hard as it feels I need to know The journey to peace With no pleasantries Let them all go [Pre-Chorus] You gavе back your whole life   Time to rеceive   I see what you’ve done You think you’re happy being numb [Chorus] Why don’t ya cry?                       (Ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah) Feel broken-hearted for the dearly departed Why don’t ya cry?                       (Ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah) Your heart’s desire burned out like a fire [Outro] Why don’t ya? Cry broken tears I’m goin’ nowhere I’ll be right here I’ll be right here I’ll hold ya I’ll be right here    I’ll be right here I’ll hold ya I’ll be right here     Why don’t ya?
