Performed by Margie CoxComposed by PrinceWhy?I got the news just yesterdayThey said U up and ran awayAll because of what somebody saidI spent my wedding night alone in bedCuz U left me standing at the altarU left big tears in my eyes (Tears in my eyes)U didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or whyEver since the day that we first metEverybody been jealous as they could get (They could get)People sayin' this and sayin' that (Sayin' that)Struck us, struck us out before we even got 2 batHey, U left me standing at the altarU left big tears in my eyes (Tears in my eyes)U didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or whyHow could U do this, how could U leave?When U knew how much U meant 2 me (U meant 2 me)I gave 2 U more than I've given any friendJust 2 have U give it all back in the endU left my poor heart brokenU left my world in a daze (In a daze)If I could, I'd write a letter 2 UBut I don't know what 2 say, I don't know what 2 sayI got the news just yesterdayThey said U up and ran awayIf there's a God way up aboveOne day U'll have 2 answer 2 Him 4 my loveU left me standing at the altarU left big tears in my eyesU didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or whyU left my poor heart brokenU left my world in a daze (In a daze)If I could, I'd write a letter 2 UBut I don't know what 2 say, I don't know what 2 say(U left me standing at the altar)U better stop doggin' me baby, yeahI can't take it no moreI can't take it no more, baby(U left my poor heart broken)
