Why I Love You I Can't Explain

Lyrics: Michael Falzarano
Music: Michael Falzarano

A Michael Falzarano song, played by the New Riders in 2011.

Well I left this town thinking I'd stay away for good
I just couldn't do it, even though I know I should
I'm drawn to you like a rooster to the hen
I was gone a long time, now I'm back again
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
'Cause why I love you, I can't explain

The way you treat me, it just ain't right
You hang around all the town, staying out all night
You got a look like a dog left out in the rain
You know that loving you honey, ain't caused me nothing but pain
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
Why I love you, I can't explain

Yeah your love is like quicksand, it's got me sinking down
You know I'm up to my neck, now I'm looking around
I can see you leaving with your back door man
You know I want to run and stop, you but I'm stuck in the sand
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
Just why I love you, I can't explain

I was stuck with a half mother on a full moon night
You know she says she got that stuff, make everything all right
So I emptied out my pockets, gave her all my cash
I said do it if you must, just do it fast
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
Just why I love you, I can't explain

Then I went to see the doctor, the gypsy and the priest
But all the potions, prayers and pills didn't help me in the least
Only your love gonna set me straight
So I'm coming back to you now, I hope you change your ways
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
Why I love you, I can't explain
I said why I love you, well I can't explain
Why I love you, well I can't explain
Said why I love you, well I can't explain
I said why I love you, well I can't explain
I'm like the rooster to the hen, the moth to the flame
Why I love you, well I can't explain
