Last Monday morning when I woke up
I found your letter under my coffee cup
I didn't know what to expect
Especially not what I read

Baby, I gotta go, no, no, no
It must be some joke or so I thought
'Cause we were so strong, had lasted so long
How could I have been so wrong?

You said you couldn't hold on
That your love for me was not that strong
So thus I ask you was it love at all
Now I have to know will you ever come back

'Cause babe, my heart is calling for you to hold me
And my soul is screaming out your name
And my mind just can't stop thinking about you
Baby, why did you cause me so much pain?
Baby, why did you cause me so much pain?
Come on, baby, tell me why

Now everyday I try to pick myself up
But all this trying is really worth nothing
'Cause you keep haunting my mind
Keep making me cry, I can't get over you

But babe, I gotta say, I must say
It was such a cruel way
How you broke it to me, just to get up and leave
After all we've been through

Now you say you couldn't hold on
That your love for me was not that strong
Thus I ask you was it love at all
Now I have to know are you ever coming back

'Cause babe, my heart is calling for you to hold me
And my soul is screaming out your name
And my mind just can't stop thinking about you
Baby, why did you cause me so much pain?
Baby, why did you cause me so?

Did you think I could just forget
After all we've been through? No, no, baby
Looking back I have no regrets
'Cause I thought I saw it all in you

Baby, my heart is calling for you to hold me
And my soul is screaming out your name
And my mind just can't stop thinking about you
Baby, why did you cause me so much pain?
Baby, why did you cause me so, so much pain?

Tell me why, why, why, why, baby
Just tell me why
Why did you cause me so much pain?
