Why Anyone Has To Go Lyrics:
why couldn’t god fill the world with
a bunch of people and just leave it
instead of everybody grieving
alone in their despair

what is the purpose of this hurting
why are the seasons always turning, tell me
if love will always end for certain
then why’d he put it there

years gone by i still can’t forget it
tears will fall and drown you if you let it
as long as i live i’m never gonna get it
why anyone has to go

this girl i knew made me better
we’d fall asleep and touch our feet togеther
now i’m just trying to forget her
to keep mе moving on

i should be happy that i knew her
and not the fact i now mean nothing to her
it’s kinda crazy she’s a stranger
and all her stuff is gone

years gone by i still can’t forget it
tears will fall and drown you if you let it
as long as i live i’m never gonna get it
why anyone has to go

years gone by, years gone bye bye bye
tears will fall and drown you if you let it
as long as i live i’m never gonna get it
why anyone has to go

valium sleeping ain't the same
wake up calling out your name
visions that I can't explain
they tell me I'm ok

maybe we could live forever
if only in our, our dreams again
oh yeah

can you feel my
years gone by, i still can't forget it
tears will fall and drown you if you let it
as long as I live i'm never gonna get it
why anyone has to go

can you feel it
years and years and years go by
and tears that I cried
as long as I live I'm never gonna get it
why anyone has to go
why anyone has to go
