Tell Me Why - Bobby Womack
Looking back on my yesterday
The feeling that we shared
Left me breathlessly
Oooh
I never thought a cloud of doubt
Would get in our way
All we said and did a crazy melody
I can't relay
Oooh
When it comes to your lovin'
So gotta have it
It's tearin' us apart but
I'll listen rather
Breaking my heart
Won't you love me tender
Before you take away
My world forever
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why can't we baby
Whoo
If you ever
Let's work it out between ourselves
Honey if you just do this for me
Tell me why
Tell me
Tell me why
Can't you see our love is about to die
I don't understand baby
Whooo
Some old jealous love keeps us fighting all the time
Hmmm
Rumors spread so quick
In the dark of the night
Oooooh
You meet me
Hmmm
Meet me on some street
Hmmm
With a friend
You say it best
Change face lovin' on yet
Oohhh
To build me up
When I was falling down
Your love ain't never never let me down
Through the hard times
Baby we got by
But now you've got me
Asking you that question why
Tell me why
Why can't we work it out onto ourselves
No I don't understand it
I don't understand baby
Let's work it out between ourselves
You don't have to do it for me but
Do it for the sake of the kids
Baby
Work it out between ourselves
Whoa
Whooo
Oh oooh
Whoa oh whoa
Ooooh baby
Let's work it out between ourselves
We can work it out
We can work it out
Work it out
When it comes to your lovin'
So gotta have it
It's tearing us apart
Girl I will surrender
You keep breakin' my heart
Just love me tender
Before you take away my
World forever
Oooh baby
Iyyy
Iyyy
I I iyyy
Oh I don't understand baby
Work it out between ourselves
If you never do nothing after just
Do this for me
Do it for you baby
Let's work it out between ourselves
It's all about me and you
Baby
Let's try to work it out
Between ourselves
Baby baby baby baby baby baby
I wanna know why
Why
Work it out between ourselves
I can see our love would never die
Let's work it out between ourselves
Whoa
Awwww
Just trust me girl
Tell me why

Work it out between ourselves
Girl you're breakin' my heart
You're breakin' my heart
Let's work it out between ourselves

Work it out between ourselves
All we gotta do is just sit down
Take a little time and talk it over
It's all about
