Why Me?

Nils Lofgren


How come the sun still warms my feet?
Wicked fear inside I can’t erase
Brothers and sisters keep get’n shot down
And me left standing in this flirty town
Why am I running crazed and free?
No answers come,
Why me?

Spent too much time on daddy’s knee
Left me too tender to love n trust
Raging haunted feelin’s guaranteed
I’m branded with a reckless wanderlust
My soul litters in enchanted ways
No answers come, why me?
Why me?
Is there hope in my catastrophe?
Why me?

Why me?
Could be love in my catastrophe
Why me?
Cast out cry respect, as I walk
Humble up and breath, walk the talk
When one door shuts another opens wide
Hell in the hallway kills or heals your eye
My soul litters vanish in the green
My faith in woman, likes me

An nothings promised, crazy as that seems
I feel like runnin,
Why me?
That train is come’n
Why me?
