LYRICS & TRANSLATION

We were drifting like two icebergs out on the ocean
I was doing all I could to keep you close
There were troubles in the water
You swore it was nothing
You said that we would always stay afloat
Why would true love look me in the eye and lie, lie
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
Have you been coming home so late in the evening
Is there someone else that I should know about
There's a smile on your face
That I haven't seen
Since we started going out
How could true love look me in the eye and lie, lie
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I'll forever wonder why
You said "Until death do us part"
And then you chose to break my heart
Remember, right back to the start
We said we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
You ѕаid we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I thought we'd be together till we die
I'll forever wonder why
I'll forever wonder why
