Lyrics
Of all the people in the world that I know
You're the best place to go
When I cry, when I cry
I never asked for much before, not before
Things are changed; I need more
Tell me why, Judy, why?
Mmm
I never thought that she would say
Say goodbye; but she did
And now I wanna die. I wanna die
I never thought that I would need, need a friend
Oh, but I did, in the end
Tell me why, Judy, why
Oh, what a scene
It's wrong for her to hang me up this way
Oh, where you been?
'Cause it's so hard to make it through the day
A man my age is very young, so I'm told
Why do I feel so old?
Tell me why, Judy, why?
Mmm
Oh, what a scene
It's wrong for her to hang me up this way
Oh, where you been?
'Cause it's so hard to make it through the day
There's no tomorrow 'cause my dream did not last
So I live in the past
Tell me why, Judy, why?
Tell me why, Judy, why?
Oh, tell me why, Judy, why?
Writer(s): Billy Joel
