Why When Love Is Gone

Ivy Jo Hunter

[Intro]
Ooh
Why, why, why?
Baby, I wonder
I wonder

[Verse 1]
With your love, you made a slave of me
But your love today you took away from me, hey
Foolishly, I believed in you
What a fool I was to think your love was true

[Pre-Chorus]
When selfishly, you broke my heart, baby (My heart)
You were only fooling from the start (You were only fooling)
Still I have but one regret (Regret)
Although, although your love is gone, I can't forget (I wonder)

[Chorus]
I said, why when your love is gone, I wonder?
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Ooh, baby, why when your love is gone, tell me why?
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Hoo

[Verse 2]
Your love was sweet when it started
Darling, why did you leave me broken hearted?
Why did you swear to always care
And then walk away and leave me in despair?

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishly, you told me lies (You lied)
Planning all the time to say goodbye (Planning all the time)
Still I have but one regret (Regret)
Although, although your love is gone, I can't forget (I wonder)

[Chorus]
I said, why when your love is gone, I wonder?
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Ooh, why? (Why when your love is gone?)
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Hey, baby

[Bridge]
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
Ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishly, you told me lies (You lied)
Planning all the time to say goodbye, baby (Planning all the time)
Still I've only one regret (Regret)
Although love is gone, I can't forget (I wonder)

[Chorus]
I said, why when your love is gone, tell me why?
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Ooh, baby
Why when your love is gone? Tell me why
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Ooh

Why? Why (Why when your love is gone)
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Ooh ooh
Why? Why (Why when your love is gone)
(My heart's still hangin' on)
Hey, baby
