I don't know why the world turns out to be the way it is as time goes by
Oh, I don't know why true love turns out to be the stuff between hello - and goodbye
Looking back with 20/20 hindsight we only tried to play our part When selfishness is state of the art you've just got to change the locks on your heart
No, I don't know why true love turns out to be the stuff between hello - and goodbye
Looking back with 20/20 hindsight we only did the best we could As green as any Norwegian Wood the acid test of fame we withstood
Now I don't know why the world turns out to be the way it is as time goes by
Oh, I don't know why true love turns out to be the stuff between hello - and goodbye
