I Don’t Know Why

I Don’t Know Why by Rachel Loshak – Lyrics

I don’t know why trees are falling
Where the birds go when they do
At the door I hear you calling
I don’t want to go with you
I don’t know why
I don’t know why

Every time I try to break you down you come for more
I don’t know just who you think you are

Little do I understand
How life is slipping through our hands
Leaving futures by the wayside
Like an ocean carves the sand
I don’t know why
I don’t know why

Heaven hides the doves that I don’t see inside their cages
I don’t even know how I should pray

You should know that I will fight and scream so I can stay
Throwing all the flowers up before they fade away
I can’t listen to the words you say

Don’t believe your pearls of wisdom
Don’t know why they feel so cold
Diamonds wait beneath the rocks
Their sparkle comes when they grow old
I don’t know why
I don’t know why

Listen now the wind is blowing through the broken tree
I can hear it whispering to me

Little do you know your future shines as bright as gold
Reflections in the lake hold secrets to be told
They say that we all leave this world alone

I don’t know why trees are falling
Where the birds go when they do
At the door I hear you calling
I don’t want to go with you
I don’t know why
I don’t know why
