I know I've been gone
For a long, long while
I've been singing songs
When all I want is to see you smile
About the time I get there
I forget why I'm gone

I wonder why, just a little
I'm always wanting something more
Life is a riddle
I wish I had the answer for
Love breaks your heart
To teach you to be strong
I die just a little
So I can live a little bit more

Wipe your eyes
You can't have rainbows without rain
In the morning I'll
Be holding you again
Don't forget our music won't disappear
'Cause there's no end

I wonder why, just a little
I'm always wanting something more
Life is a riddle
That I don't have the answer for
Love breaks your heart
To teach you to be strong
I die just a little
So I can live a little bit more

I will sing to you
When the road sings me to sleep
Maybe you'll stay with me
And I will give you songs you can keep

I wonder why, just a little
I'm always wanting something more
Life is a riddle
I wish I had the answer for
Love breaks your heart
To teach you to be strong
I die just a little
So I can live a little bit more
