Inspired by David when he picked me up for church.
It’s been a hard life
Much different than being his wife,
On my own and writing this song
And still asking why?
I’ve been down many roads,
Meeting people, then moving on,
Always search, never satisfied,
He shoulda, coulda, and I still ask why?
CHORUS
Why dear God did I fall in love?
Did you know I’d be here because
Too many years gone by and I still ask why?
Scattered, shattered pieces, left to die.
Only you can make sense of it all.
Only you make me stand up tall
Only you save the best for last,
As you pick me up and we both laugh!
(Talk) It’s a blast now, and …….
Oh! God! I want to laugh
And forget about all the rest.
I wanna laugh with you,
And dance with you for eternity
CHORUS
Why dear God did I fall in love?
Did you know I’d be here because
Too many years gone by and I still ask why?
Scattered, shattered pieces, left to die.
Oh! God! I want to laugh
And forget about all the rest.
I wanna laugh with you,
And dance with you for eternity
END STRUM AND TALK
Now I know
It’s about me and you, and that is why!
You took the broken pieces, so I could tell,
You carried me, and I live to tell
The reason why
