Dry cry even tears
Even my heart cry, but who cares
Who's fault? No one but myself
Things do happen words can't explain
The only human reasoning, joy mixed with pain
People would spend time just for us to separate
They don't want to see us reach nowhere
Oh girl and you know I care

Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you go, can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days

Am I too humble, or ignorant
Things began to fade, nothing seems important
Oh, My girl have left me & gone
Doesn't want to see her in another arm
The essence of her beauty, & her charm
The perfume still linger, hold on
Remember girl, where we're coming from
I'm the one to whom you belong
Girl, you keep me strong
You and you alone, no other one

Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you go, can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days

Keep looking to see her at my gate
Listening to hear the phone ring by the fireplace
Now somewhere out there is my girl
Now where can I find her in this world
Still not gonna break down, nor be sad
Even though I'm stressed out, fed up, & feeling bad
I just can't do without her, OH JAH!
Still a man got to try

Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you go, can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days

Is this happening, for real
Only if you know the vibes what I feel
Still trying to do my best
And I still won't lose my interest
My girl I love you so
Really hurts to see you go

Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you go, can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days
