Don't Know Why by Pat Metheny

Just look at you sitting there
You never looked better than tonight
And it'd be so easy to tell you I'd stay
Like I've done so many times

I was so sure that this would be the night
You'd close the door and wanna stay with me
And it'd be so easy to tell you I'd wait
Like I've done so many times

Don't fall in love with a dreamer
'Cause he'll always take you in
Just when you think you've really changed him
He'll leave you again

Don't fall in love with a dreamer
'Cause he'll break you every time
Oh, put out the light and just hold on
Before we say goodbye

Now it's morning the phone rings
And you say you've gotta get your things together
You just gotta leave before you change your mind
And if you knew what I was thinking girl
I'd turn around if you'd just ask me one more time

Don't fall in love with a dreamer
'Cause he'll always take you in
Just when you think you've really changed him
He'll leave you again

Don't fall in love with a dreamer
'Cause he'll break you every time
Oh, put out the light and just hold on
Before we say goodbye

Before we say goodbye
Goodbye
