That Is Why

Though it's hard to admit it's true

I've come to depend on you

You and your angelic shout

Loud enough for two

And that is why

I'll confide in you the truth this time

That is why

I just can't go on and live this lie

Yesterday, all was right as rain

But now the forecast's not

It's partly cloudy with trouser stains

And his copy of enquiring minds

But that never meant that much to her

She chose to keep her nose too clean

She'd rather keep it pointed anyway

In the spine of a magazine

And that is why

I'll confide in you the truth this time

Confide in you the truth this time

That is why

I just can't go on and live this lie

When you say, "I trust in you"

I promise you the truth

And when you say, "I bet you won't"

You know I will, and it'll be better in the end

So when you think you got it figured out

Then you know you don't

Like all the rest you'd like to sit and pout

But of course, you won't

And that is why

I'll confide in you the truth this time

Confide in you the truth this time

That is why

I just can't go on and live this lie

That is why

That is why

That is why

That is why

That is why

That is why

That is why
