[Verse 1]
Why does it have to be this way?
What aren't you tellin' me? Baby, I'm afraid
I want to help you, but you won't let me in
I can see that there's somethin' wrong
But honey, please tell me what's goin' on
[Chorus]
What's behind those troubled eyes?
Baby, why are you disguised?
I look at you and I try to see
Why won't you tell me honestly?
[Verse 2]
I try to look deeper, but you just look away
I swear, I'm tryin' to help you, but what else can I say?
[Chorus]
What's behind those troubled eyes?
Baby, why are you disguised?
I look at you and I try to see
Why won't you tell me honestly?
[Verse 3]
I know that you're hurtin', and others claim to know
Just know my heart is burnin' and that I love you so
[Chorus]
What's behind those troubled eyes?
Baby, why are you disguised?
I look at you and I try to see
Why won't you tell me honestly?
What's behind those troubled eyes?
Baby, why are you disguised?
I look at you and I try to see
Why won't you tell me honestly?
