Tell Me Why

Lyrics

[Intro: Posh] Spice Girls, Darkchild Let's dance Ooh-ooh We could have had it all But you turned your back [Verse 1: Posh] It started with dreams It started a team But you weren't as true as you always seemed You promised to love no matter what Yet you turned your back and walked out on me [Pre-Chorus: Baby, Posh, Baby & Posh] What made you think that without me Your life would be so much better? (Oh) But now you see (But now you see) That without me Your hopes and dreams (And your dreams) Will never be as good as what you had with me [Chorus: All & Baby] (So tell me why) Tell me why, oh, why Did we end up this way? When we tried (We tried) To make everything okay (Oh) Tell me why, oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? When we could have stayed together But you wanted it this way [Verse 2: Scary] You never thought that I would find out All of the things you said about us When you're the one who decided to Erase all our plans and say you are through [Pre-Chorus: Baby, Scary, Baby & Scary] What made you think that without me Your life would be so much better? (So much better) But now you see (But now you see) That without me Your hopes and dreams (They will never) Will never be as good as what you had with me (Had with me) [Chorus: All, Sporty & Scary] Tell me why, oh, why (Tell me why) Did we end up this way? (Did we end up this way?) When we tried (We tried, when we tried) To make everything okay (Yes, we did) Tell me why, oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? When we could have stayed together (We could have) But you wanted it this way (Oh, woah-woah) Tell me why, oh, why Did we end up this way? (Did we end up this way) (I thought it was okay) When we tried (We tried) To make everything okay (We tried and tried, tried so hard) Tell me why, oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? (It was you who wanted to leave) When we could have stayed together But you wanted it this way (But you wanted it this way) [Bridge: Sporty] Now tell me, was it your plan all along To try and use me and then let go? Now where is the trust we had between us? I guess that you never played by the rules [Interlude: Baby & Rodney Jerkins] (Come on, yeah) (Let's dance, come on, uh, uh) (Come on, come on, whoo) (Like that, like that, uh, uh) (Spice Girls, uh, uh) (Darkchild, uh, uh) (2000, uh, uh) Can you tell me? [Chorus: All, Baby & Sporty] Tell me why, oh, why Did we end up this way? When we tried (We tried) To make everything okay (We tried and tried again) Tell me why (Yes, we did), oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? When we could have stayed together (Thought you could've stayed) But you wanted it this way (Oh, tell me why) Tell me why, oh, why Did we end up this way? (Did we end up this way) When we tried (We tried, we always tried again) To make everything okay (We always tried again) Tell me why, oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? (Somebody tell me why) When we could have stayed together But you wanted it this way (You wanted it this way) Tell me why, oh, why Did we end up this way? (Oh, tell me why) When we tried (We tried, yeah, yeah, yeah) To make everything okay Tell me why, oh, why Did you feel you couldn't stay? When we could have stayed together But you wanted it this way
