Alicia Keys - Why Do I Feel So Sad lyrics

Friends we've been for so long
Now true colors are showing
Makes me wanna cry oh, yes, it does
'Cause, I had to say goodbye

By now, I should know
That, in time, things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad?

How can I adjust
To the way that things are going?
It's killing me slowly
Oh, I just want it to be how it used to be
Yeah

'Cause, I wish that I could stay
But, in time, things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad? (Uh)

You cannot hide the way you feel inside
I realize
Your actions speak much louder than words
So tell me why, oh

By now, I should know that (Should know)
That, in time, things must change
(Things must change)
So it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be so bad
(Be so bad) so why do I feel so sad?
By now, I should know (I should know)
That, in time, things must change
(Things must change)
So it shouldn't be so bad (Be so bad)
So why do I feel so sad?

By now, by now, I should know (I should know)
That in time things must grow
And I had to leave you behind
(Things must change)
So why do I feel so sad (Be so sad)
If it couldn't be that bad?
Tell me why (Why do I feel so sad?)

By now, I should know (I should know)
That, in time, things must change
(Things must change)
So it shouldn't be so bad (Be so bad)
So why do I feel so sad? (So sad)

Why do I feel so sad? (Why do I feel so sad?)
When I know that it must change
(Why do I feel so sad?)
It must change, I don't mind
Just be real with me, just be truthful
(Truthful)
And the rest, I'm leaving up to this one
Yeah
Why does it feel so bad inside (Ah ah ah)
When I realize that you got
To be left behind? (I feel so sad)
