Tell Me Why (Live Carnegie Hall 1970) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sailing heart ships through broken harbors
Out on the waves in the night
Still the searcher must ride the dark horse
Racing alone in his fright

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Tell me why
Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself
When you're old enough to repay, but young enough to sell?

[Verse 2]
Tell me lies later, come and see me
I'll be around for a while
I am lonely, but you can free me
All in the way that you smile

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Tell me why
Is it hard to makе arrangements with yourself
Whеn you're old enough to repay, but young enough to sell?
Tell me why
Tell me why
Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself
When you're old enough to repay, but young enough to sell?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
