Why
by Kenny Marks

Album: World Gone Mad

Well, I couldn't be prepared
To say goodbye today
As I held the baby in my hands
She was a sweet and gentle flower
When she died today
And now I just can't seem to understand

I'll have a question for you
About the things that you do
When we meet face-to-face, eye-to-eye
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
I'm still just askin', why?

Yeah, the doctor said, "I'm sorry
It won't be long today"
There was nothin' more that he could do
And after all our tears
And all our prayers are gone today
Is there an answer to what we've been thru

I'll have a question for you
About the things that you do
'Cause I can't grasp it as hard as I try
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
'Cause I'm still just askin', why?

Why? Why?
When we meet face-to-face, eye-to-eye
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
I'm still just askin', why?

Why? Why?
When we meet in the sweet by and by
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
I'm still just askin', why?

In the darkness of a garden
Half a world away
While His friends just couldn't stay awake
I see the anguished face of Jesus
As He kneels to pray
Would the Father, His only Son, forsake?

He had a question for you
About the things that you do
Then He breathed His last breath
And He died
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
I'm still just askin', why?

Why? Why?
I may ask till the day that I die
So, for now, would you forgive me
When I cry and say
I'm still just askin', why?
