I Don't Know Why
I DON’T KNOW WHY

I saw her there by the river
She was there by the river
I saw her there by the river
With the sunshine in her hair
She wore a gown of red and yellow
She wore a gown of red and yellow
I offered a shy hello
Her beauty was beyond compare
And I knew right then that I loved her
I knew at first sight that I loved her
Yeah I knew right then that I loved her
There was magic in the air
But now I don't know why
No I don't know why
Oh I don't know why
She had to go
I'll always remember the way she’d smile
And I’ll always remember the way she’d cry
And On that day we said I do
And she looked me in the eye
She said I will always love you
Oh I will always love you
She said I will always love you
My darling until the day I die.
They laid her down to rest on a Tuesday
They laid her to rest on a Tuesday
Oh Lord how could it end this way
With no sunshine was in her hair.
But now I don't know why
No I don't know why
Oh I don't know why
She had to go
She was there by the rive
The sunshine in her hair
She said I will always love you
And there was magic in the air
And now I don’t know why
She had to go
