Why Is It Always This Way?

Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way? 
Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way?

Last time I saw her alive she was wavin', wavin' bye bye
She was contemplating suicide 
Now she's lying in a bottle of formaldehyde

And oh, I just don't know 
Why I can't let her go 
Oh I just don't know

Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way? 
Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way?

Last time I saw her alive she was going to the wash and dry
She was outside hitchin' a ride now she's lying in a bottle of formaldehyde

And oh, I just don't know 
Why I can't let her go 
Oh I just don't know

Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way? 
Hey hey hey 
Why is it always this way?
