Why don't you love me


Sometimes youre dressed in castillian vogue
Other times you speak with a faux (false ? ) scottish brogue
Ruthless, relentless, pursuing your defenseless quarry
Now you say youve been following me through my lives and deaths
From the very first tears to the last failing breaths
You clean up the mess, you say I must confess you say Im sorry

Some say theyve seen you outside of my door
On dark, rainy nights when the light is so poor
Maybe theyre mistaken, or maybe youre just faking evidence
They think youre a man with the body of a libertine
Skin thats so white, clean daylight has never seen
I wonder if youre punishment, or prison or just providence

You say why, why, why
Why, why, why
Why, why, why
Dont you love me?

How you danced with the outlaws in the old, wild west
Carried a derringer under your vest
I know with a sneer you claim to have been guinivere
But I am not lancelot, I was never king arthur
I say once again Im not the man that youre after
That was a different man, he aint been here

You say why, why, why
Why, why, why
Why, why, why
Dont you love me?

You were there in florence as I painted the ceiling
On that old river boat, saw the hands I was dealing
Were you there the night I discovered lsd?
You held my hand through the straights of magellan
At the medicine shore, snake-oil you were selling
Wasnt that you? wasnt that me?

You say why, why, why
Why, why, why
Why, why, why
Dont you love me?

On the brink of the moon, at the foot of the andes
The mouth of the river, as we washed in the ganges
Pulled the arrow out my eye at hastings
You washed my brow as I lay in a fever
You were the fulcrum, I was the lever
Im not a believer, its just all your time you are wasting

Youre a prisoner in a tower, a damsel in distress
Love hold us in thrall, my eternal mistress
Youve been wife, my lover, my sister, my mother, my maid
My partner, my consort, my bit on the side
My darling, my sweetheart, my hope and my pride
And all because of some stupid on the blurred crusade

You say why, why, why
Why, why, why
Why, why, why
Dont you love me?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
