Why God Why? (Live From The Prince Edward Theatre, London / 2014) - Original Cast: Miss Saigon / London / 2014/Alistair Brammer

Why does Saigon never sleep at night

Why does this girl smell of orange trees

How can I feel good when nothing's right

Why is she cool when there is no breeze

Vietnam

You don't give answers do you friend

Just questions that don't ever end

Why God Why today

I'm all through here on my way

There's nothing left here that I'll miss

Why send me now a night like this

Who is the girl in this rusty bed

Why am I back in a filthy room

Why is her voice ringing in my head

Why am I high on her cheap perfume

Vietnam

Hey look I mean you no offense

But why does nothing here make sense

Why God Show your hand

Why can't one guy understand

I've been with girls who knew much more

I never felt confused before

Why me What's your plan

I can't help her no one can

I liked my memries as they were

But now I'll leave remembring her

When I went home before

No one talked of the war

What they knew from TV

Didn't have a thing to do with me

I went back and reupped

Sure Saigon is corrupt

It felt better to be

Here driving for the embassy

'Cause here if you can pull a string

A guy like me lives like a king

Just as long as you don't believe anything

Why God Why this face

Why such beauty in this place

I liked my memries as they were

But now I'll leave rememb'ring her

Just her
