WHY 

Why 
Why did you love me, 
Why'd you die upon that tree? 
If my lover takes another, 
then why did you love me? 
If my lover cannot love me, 
then why'd you first love me? 
If she can turn and walk away,and 
then love is missing me today? 
Why did you shed your blood upon the tree, 
If not for me//??
