It's no secret; somebody waits at home for you
And I know how hard it seems for you to do
So if you really believe this love is so wrong
We don't have to carry on; but still I wonder
Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh tell me why; why does it have to be
Can say that you didn't know where this might lead
And I know I couldn't have been that hard to read
But we both know this is not where you belong
There's no need to carry on; ah but I can't help but wonder
Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh tell me why; why does it have to be
(solo)
Oh why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh tell me why; oh tell me
Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh tell me why; why does it have to be
