Why - Rascal Flatts


You must have been in a place so dark
You couldn’t feel the light
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
This cant be the way you meant to draw a crowd

Oh why, that’s what I asking
Was there anything I could have said or done
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
God only knows what went wrong
And whyy.. youd leave the stage in the middle of a song
Mmmm….

Now in my mind ill keep you frozen as a 17 year old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion no matter what the game
When you took the stage you shined just like the sun

Oh why thats what I keep asking
Was there anything I could have said or done
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
Oh God only knows what went wrong
And why you would leave the stage in the middle of a song
Yeahhh….

Now the oak trees a swaying in the early autumn breeze
The golden sun is shining on my face
Tangled thoughts I hear the mocking bird sing this old world Really aint that bad a place

Oh I theres no comprehending
And who am I to try judge or explain?
But I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasn’t worth the fight
They were wrong
They lied
Now your gone and we cry
It’s just not like you to walk away in the middle of a song
Your beautiful song
Your absolutely beautiful song
