Why, God Why? (From "Miss Saigon")

Why God Why(Miss Saigon) - The Musical Swingers

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

We got now

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

We get now

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 memories as they were

But now I'll leave remembering 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 re upped

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 memories

As they were

But now I'll leave remembering her

Just her
