    Lyrics
    How many times do I have to try to tell you
    That I'm sorry for the things I've done
    But when I start to try to tell you
    That's when you have to tell me
    Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun
    I tell myself too many times
    Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
    That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
    That keep on falling from your mouth
    Falling from your mouth
    Falling from your mouth
    Tell me
    Why
    Why
    I may be mad
    I may be blind
    I may be viciously unkind
    But I can still read what you're thinking
    And I've heard it said too many times
    That you'd be better off
    Besides
    Why can't you see this boat is sinking
    (This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking)
    Let's go down to the water's edge
    And we can cast away those doubts
    Some things are better left unsaid
    But they still turn me inside out
    Turning inside out turning inside out
    Tell me
    Why
    Tell me
    Why
    This is the book I never read
    These are the words I never said
    This is the path I'll never tread
    These are the dreams I'll dream instead
    This is the joy that's seldom spread
    These are the tears
    The tears we shed
    This is the fear
    This is the dread
    These are the contents of my head
    And these are the years that we have spent
    And this is what they represent
    And this is how I feel
    Do you know how I feel?
    'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
    I don't think you know what I feel
    I don't think you know what I feel
    You don't know what I feel

    This song is about a crumbling relationship and how you deal with changes in your life, but it's so much more than that, IMO. Beyond the sad melody and aching vocals, Annie talks covers the 5 stages of grief: denial ("Some things are better left unsaid"), anger ("Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut"), bargaining ("Let's go down to the water's edge And we can cast away those doubts), depression ("This is the book I never read, These are the words I never said"), acceptance ("You don't know what I feel"), to culminate with a single word in the chorus: "Why?". If this isn't a masterpiece to you, then tell me what is.

    Just watched a documentary on Annie Lennox and how she along with Dave Stewart struggled for years for success. She was banned from MTV and ridiculed for her short hair, accused of being a cross dresser, etc. A real story of perseverance. What an artist and just listen to those pipes. A gift for us. Thanks Annie and Dave.

    This music video demonstrates the power of nuance and intimacy-Annie does relatively little yet remains so compelling to watch. Particularly at a time when some music videos were becoming massive productions worth millions of dollars with extensive choreography, expensive sets and wardrobes, and more. How much this video conveys with so little!
    And then there's the song itself, a breath of fresh air after the Eurythmics years-when we were able to see more of the person behind the performance...

    "I may be mad, I may be blind, I may be viciously unkind, but I can still read what you're thinking." Annie just cuts to the chase. I adore her. The voice, the songwriting, the performance, the beauty without pretentiousness.

      I hear and watch this video and cant help going through an ocean of emotions. I remember thenfirst time i watched this video back in early 90s and it was just incredible to see how loaded with artistry and poetry and all the beautiful lyrics. It brings me back to that moment when i would run to the tv to turn up the volume when this video happened to be on. Its a video that makes u take a pause and admire so many elements. That level of artistry i think its lost today. Compare this jewel to the music videos of today sexually charged that is all about drugs or violence or pornography. Im so thankful to have been born and be on this earth at same time any lenox is. Her amazing music just transformed my life.

    I had an obsessed delusional relationship with a woman in a drug treatment center. She was physically abused by an ex before entering the center, addicted to fentanyl and meth. She was smart and had a great career before getting with him, but lost it all. I had owned a restaurant, and I felt she was my soulmate. I scared her away, and all because I took her kindness too far. I ruined something that was really special, all because of early feelings in recovery, as well as a manic episode. I'm writing a book on my experiences, and I hope to one day publish it so people can see addicts are everyday people. Some of us have it harder than others.

    This song will always remind me of when my mum told me she had alzheimer's. I was first one in family she told. We had a tricky relationship, she kicked me out of home when I was 17 for fighting my older brother. I was 30 when she told me, and said I was only one who wouldn't judge her. My dad died when I was 14. My mother remarried. When I got back home to my flat I cried my eyes out. This song came on the radio when I was in her car and will always remind me of that day. I was 30. She has since passed away in 2018 when I was 40. The alzheimer's didn't kill her she had another illness a hole in her stomach. It was for best as at the end it got really bad she forgot everything. Thought she was 17 and still in Scotland where she was from. She left when she was 18 to do her dancing in London. I miss her so much but I'm glad she has peace. Alzheimer's is a horrible disease love to anyone who has to deal with it in their family. Try to face it with a smile. My mum fort it bravely and always could smile. Peace people love x oh yeah just before she went completely I gave her a granddaughter I can't express the comfort that gave both of us xxxx

    Saw her live July 2004. To this day she is one of the greatest singers I have ever heard live. There is no denying her.

      I don't know how she's not more well-known. A lot of young people don't recognize her name even though they've heard Sweet Dreams. I think her plain-Jane or androgynous look have kept her from being more recognizable, which is a shame, her voice and soul are more beautiful than most singers I've known of.

    Sitting in the dentist chair for my root canal today, this song came on the radio. I remember it from my childhood and haven't heard it for so long. It's so sad that kids nowadays don't even realize that most of the garbage they listen to isn't even music.

    One of the great female voices of our time. Have followed this lady career and have always been totally impressed with everything she does...Annie Lennox the ultimate singer.

      Massive fan since The Tourists days, but just like to say that the use of the word 'female' is possibly unnecessary. Not burning my bra here (or wishing to be offensive and i am male, so no gender agenda here), but she is one of the best singer/songwriters ever. I agree with you, Annie Lennox is the ultimate singer/songwriter for me. Definitely shaped the soundtrack of my life, to be fair. Yeah, got a bit of a crush on her!

      She's a professional who graduated a music school. Unlike many singers who just like to sing and do it well and then become famous. I miss all the artistry and depth on every level in today's music
