Why Henry lyrics

Why Henry, why why Henry
Why should a young man inspire such envy
Well I wanted to run like you, I just didn’t have it in me
Spry Henry… just as light as he can be, but

Why can’t I get the balance right
What to put in me just to sleep at night and still wake up in the

Morning would find you at the mercy of a memory
Childe Henry with his tender heart rending
Don't get your hopes up, kid, you won't get a close-­up
'Til you smile, Henry, though the wounds are still mending

If you could have seen the aftermath
Would it have made you choose a different path or throw back your head and laugh

Woo
Ha ha ha

Why can’t I get the balance right
What to put in me just to sleep at night
And still wake up in the morning

Oooh, oooh, etc

Why Henry, why why Henry
