英文乡村歌曲：Rascal Flatts - Why

I took a chance, i took a shot
and you might think i'm bulletproof, but i'm not
you took a swing, i took it hard
and down here from the ground i see who you are

I'm sick and tired of your attitude
I'm feeling like i don't know you
you tell me that you love me then you cut me down
and i need you like a heartbeat
but you know you got a mean streak¹
makes me run for cover when you're around
and here's to you and your temper
yes, i remember what you said last night
and i know that you see what you're doing to me
tell me why..

You could write a book on
how to ruin someone's perfect day
well i get so confused and frustrated²
forget what i'm trying to say, oh

I'm sick and tired of your reasons
I got no one to believe in
you tell me that you want me, then push me around
and i need you like a heartbeat
but you know you got a mean streak
makes me run for cover when you're around
here's to you and your temper
yes, i remember what you said last night
and i know that you see what you're doing to me
tell me why..

why..do you have to make me feel small
so you can feel whole inside
why..do you have to put down my dreams
so you're the only thing on my mind

i'm sick and tired of your attitude
i'm feeling like i don't know you
you tell me that you want me then cut me down
i'm sick and tired of your reasons
i've got no one to believe in
you ask me for my love then you push me around
here's to you and your temper
yes, i remember what you said last night
and i know that you see what you're doing to me
tell me why
why, tell me why

i take a step back, let you go
i told you i'm not bulletproof
now you know
