I wake up while you lie sleepin
I take one look at you and wonder
Am I still sleepin
Are you some kind of angel
Come down to save me
Or just some place my imaginations tryin to take me
What have I done to deserve what I feel
You give me somethin thats too good to be real
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands
I need to know just one thing
I still dont understand
Why do you love me
Why do you give so much
How do you heal the pain within me
Is it the power of your touch
Now that youve opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
Ive become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby why, baby why me
Why me, why me
I aint got a clue, just a notion
Sometimes Im helplessly adrift out in the ocean
I feel like a child with one sole intention
In search of an answer that defies all comprehension
Im in too deep but thats what youre all about
Got no hope or desire of finding my way out
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands
I need to know that one thing
Can ya help me understand
Hook
Couldve been anyone in this world, why me
Every lesson that Ive learned
Youve come to me and shown me
What it means to be loved
What it means to be loved
Hook
Why me, why, why me, why me
Help me understand just what youve done to me
cause Im the richest man that I could ever be
Help me understand just what youve done to me
cause Im the richest man that I could ever be
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
