Golden Earring

Why Me?
I'm standing on the cliff top, watchin' storm clouds grow It's disappointment time again, I've been up here before The wind balloons my jacket, seabirds collide below A pier stands on a hundred stilts, some stranded UFO I've stopped the car, in a dead end street Rear view mirror, nothing but empty seats I could brace myself, smash through the concrete Find what's behind that wall of insecurity From gin and jags, to squalor and scab Selena, what a drag Once we were, back to back Almost there, but white was black Why me, designed to compete Always, flirtin' with defeat Why me, I knew it when we met Hell, what else could you expect Why me, hungry for affection It ends, with chaos and rejection Through the wall and over the cliff I made the decision, you took quite a risk Selena says, as she strokes my head With luck like yours, you should be dead SongtexteForget the past and melt my silver spoon Selena, not a minute too soon Broke the chains of negativity At last I score a victory Why me, no need to compete Nowadays, I think at defeat She's me, I felt it when me met That feel, cancels all regret Me, the center of attraction The end, adds to your confusion I'm standin' on the cliff top, waving, waving Why me, no need to compete Nowadays, I wink at defeat She's me, I felt it when we met That feel, cancels all regret Still me, the center of attraction The end, adds to your confusion I'm standin', on the cliff top Waitin' for the cops Aus Songtexte Mania
