Why does Saigon
Never sleep at night?
Why does this girl
Smell of orange trees
How can I feel good when
Nothing's right
Why is she cool
When there is no breeze?
Vietnam
You don't give answers, do you friend?
Just questions that don't ever end
Why God?
Why today?
I'm all through here
On my way
There's nothing left here
That I'll miss
Why send me now
A night like this?
Who is the girl
In this rusty bed?
Why am I back
In a filthy room?
Why is her voice
Ringing in my head?
Why am I high
On her cheap perfume?
Vietnam
Hey look
I mean you no offense
But why
Does nothing here make sense?
Why God?
Show your hand.
Why can't one guy
Understand?
I've been with girls
Who knew much more
I never felt
Confused before.
Why me?
What's your plan?
I can't help her
No one can.
I liked my mem'ries as they were
But now I'll leave
Rememb'ring her

When I went home before
No one talked of the war
What they knew from TV
Didn't have a thing to do with me
...........
I went back and re-upped
Sure Saigon is corrupt
It felt better to be here
Driving for the embassy
Cause here if you can pull a string
A guy like me lives like a king
Just as long as you don't
Believe anything

Why God?
Why this face?
Why such beauty
In this place?
I liked my mem'ries
As they were
But now I'll leave
Rememb'ring
Her
Just
Her..............................
.................THANK YOU..............
