Every time I look at someone new
Tell me why I think of you
Then you sometimes pass me by
You're playing with love
Darling, tell me why
You left me all alone
To cry over you
My heart is torn and broken
And there's nothing left to do
In my prayers, I'll mention you
Without your love, I feel so blue
Why can't I have all of you
Oh, somebody, please tell me why
Oh, won't somebody please tell me why
Tell me why I think of you
Then you sometimes pass me by
You're playing with love
Darling, tell me why
You left me all alone
To cry over you
My heart is torn and broken
And there's nothing left to do
In my prayers, I'll mention you
Without your love, I feel so blue
Why can't I have all of you
Oh, somebody, please tell me why
Oh, won't somebody please tell me why
