I'd Understand Why Songtext

von Hot Club of Cowtown

In the springtime all the leaves have their trees
Every web has it's spider to weave
Even roses get the noses of strangers passing by
If I could only have you, I'd understand why

Wildflowers have their birds and their bees
Black and white stripes have zebras to please
All the monkeys in the trees couldn't swing without their vines
If I could only have you, I'd understand why

Every oyster has its pearl to appease
Drops of water have their rivers and seas
Every boat has it's lighthouse, to welcome it ashore
If I could only have you forever more

Blue sky needs clouds so it can chase them away
The sun needs night to shine bright in the day
How do I need you, like the stars need the sky
Until I have you, I'll never know why
