Who will I be when I'm older?
Where will I be when it ends?
How would it feel if I told you
You're the only one making it make any sense?

You're the why I think that there's a heaven
You're the why I never wanna go
You're the why I never waste a second
Asking questions I don't need to know
Like who holds the stars right where they are
What really happens when we die
No matter how it all plays out
As long as I am still alive
You're the why
You're the why

What did I do to deserve you?
How long are you gonna stay?
What if I swear I won't hurt you?
Do you think I could wake up with you every day?
Really, nothing else matters to me anyway

You're the why I think that there's a heaven
You're the why I never wanna go
You're the why I never waste a second
Asking questions I don't need to know
Like who holds the stars right where they are
What really happens when we die
No matter how it all plays out
As long as I am still alive
You're the why, you're the why
You're the why, you're the why

It's because of you that I'm breathing
It's because of you that I'm still here
It's because of you, you're the reason
You make all the bad things disappear

You're the why I think that there's a heaven
You're the why I never wanna go
You're the why I never waste a second
Asking questions I don't need to know
Like who holds the stars right where they are
What really happens when we die
No matter how it all plays out
As long as I am still alive
You're the why, you're the why
You're the why, you're the why
