Why

Rascal Flatts

You must have been in a place so dark 
You couldnt feel the light
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud 
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
This cant be the way you meant to draw a crowd

Oh why, thats what I asking 
Was there anything i could have said or done
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul 
God only knows what went wrong and whyy youd leave the stage in the middle of a song
mmmmm

Now in my mind ill keep you frozen as a 17 year old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion no matter what the game
When you took the stage you shined just like the sun 

Oh why thats what I keep asking 
Was there anything I could have said or done
Oh I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul 
Oh God only knows what went wrong and why you would leave the stage in the middle of a song
Yeahhhhh 

Now the oak trees a swaying in the early autumn breeze 
The golden sun is shining on my face
Tangled thoughts i hear the mocking bird sing this old world really aint that bad a place

Oh I theres no comprehending and who am i to try judge or explain
But I do have one burning question 
Who told you life wasnt worth the fight 
They were wrong 
They lied 
Now your gone and we cry 
Its just not like you to walk away in the middle of a song 
Your beautiful song 
Your absolutely beautiful song
