WYNONNA JUDD LYRICS - Why Now

"Why Now"



Somewhere off

In a distant dream

You were long ago

Like a memory



Now you're back

Standing here

Sayin' all the words

You think I want to hear



Did you finally realize

What I knew all along

That you never needed me

Until I was gone



[Chorus]



Why now

Should I turn my life around

Just to let you bring me down

Another time

Oh, why now

After all the years apart

Should I open up my heart

And let you in my life again



Everything, that I tried to forget

Thought I left behind, guess it ain't over yet

And babe, it's almost worth all the pain

Just to look in your eyes and hold you again

You never realized how much I tried

To let you know what I was feeling inside



[Repeat Chorus]



Hold on, cause it's starting all over

Hold on, cause it won't be the same

Hold on, letting go would be better

Letting go of the pain



[Bridge]



How did you think I would be

Waiting for you for an eternity

[Repeat Chorus]
