Don't Know Why I Love You - Lyrics

oh, sure don't baby, baby, baby... ooh, ooh
i don't know why i love you
i don't know why i love you
i don't know why i love you but i love you
always treat me like a fool

i don't know why i love you, but i love you

oh you'll never, you'll never stop your cheating ways
with another guy you laugh in my face
lord i know 'cause i feel disgrace
'cause i love you, oh, baby, baby, baby
i don't know why i love you
i don't know you and me, baby, oh yeah
i don't know why i love you, but i love you, baby
oh darling, darling, darling, darling ...
you throw my heart down in the dirt
oh, you make me cry
on this cold black earth, baby yeah
i never knew, i never knew how much i could hurt
'til i love you baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
can't stop, i can't stop crying can't you see
here i'm pleading on my knees, upon my knees, yeah baby, yeah
won't you help me, help me, please,
'cause i love you, love you, love you, ohh
(you know , baby)
i don't know, we don't know, we don't know

i don't know why i love you baby, baby (i don't know, i don't know)
i don't know why i love you baby, baby...
