Friends say "it must be nice- How's the view from Paradise?" I smile sadly once or twice And say "how should I know?" They wonder "why so blue?" And when I tell them that we're through They ask what on earth I'll do, I say "how should I know?" Things happen in their season For no reason taught in school Far wiser hearts than mine Have tried to divine love's ancient rule That makes each one of us a fool... So why dwell in the past On a flame that burned to fast Don't ask me why it didn't last I'll just say "how should I know?" All that I know Is that I miss you so... Things happen in their season For no reason taught in school Far wiser hearts than mine Have tried to divine love's ancient rule That makes each one of us a fool... So why dwell in the past On a flame that burned to fast Don't ask me why it didn't last I'll just say "how should I know?" All that I know Is that I miss you so... Tonight.
