I Can't Tell You Why Lyrics

(Don Henley, Glen Frey, Timothy B. Schmit)
Look at us baby
Up all night
Tearin' our love apart
Aren't we the same two people
Who lived through years in the dark
Every time I try to walk away
Somethin' makes me turn and stay

I can't tell you why

When we get crazy
It just ain't right
(Try to keep your head on, girl)
'Cause girl I get lonely too
You don't have to worry
Just hold on tight
(Don't get caught in your little world)
'Cause I love you
Nothin's wrong as far as I can see
We make it harder than it has to be

I can't tell you why
No, baby, I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
Every time I try to walk away
Somethin' makes me turn around and stay

I can't tell you why
No, baby, I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why... yeah

No, baby
Ooooh, I can't tell you why
