[Intro]
[Verse 1]
You must have been in a place so dark
You couldnât feel the light
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
This canât be the way you meant to draw a crowd
[Chorus]
Oh why, thatâs what I keep 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 why youâd leave the stage in the middle of a song
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Now in my mind Iâll 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
[Chorus]
Oh why, thatâs what I keep 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 why youâd leave the stage in the middle of a song
Yeeaah
[Bridge]
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 ainât that bad a place
[Chorus]
Oh why thereâs no comprehending
And who am I to try judge or explain
Oh but I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasnât worth the fight
They were wrong
They lied
Now youâre gone and we cry
Cause itâs just not like you to walk away in the middle of a song
Your beautiful song
Your absolutely beautiful song
