Say, why can it get this far?
This time went around too fast
Why did everything seem so perfect?
Now you're gone, tell me the reason
Baby, tell me why
Can't I get over you?
Baby, tell me why
Was it an illusion?
Maybe it was the wrong time
And we weren't ready
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why
You don't pick up the phone
Because it's only on silent
Baby, come on, talk already
I don't even know what's going on with you
I don't care what you want to tell me, it's okay, baby
Just looking at your stories once is enough, I see you're doing fine
I think way too often about our very first date, baby
I only have one question: why was I never enough for you?
Say, why can it get this far?
This time went around too fast
Why did everything seem so perfect?
Now you're gone, tell me the reason
Baby, tell me why
Can't I get over you?
Baby, tell me why
Was it an illusion?
Maybe it was the wrong time
And we weren't ready
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why
And I don't want to hear anything anymore, do your thing, it's okay, baby
I've already forgotten you, suddenly you were at my door
I look you in the eye, take care, I say it like drake, baby
Say, how much have I done for you? I ask myself, what for
Say, why can it get this far?
This time went around too fast
Why did everything seem so perfect?
Now you're gone, tell me the reason
Baby, tell me why
Can't I get over you?
Baby, tell me why
Was it an illusion?
Maybe it was the wrong time
And we weren't ready
Baby, tell me why
Tell me why
Baby, tell me why
Why?
Tell me why
Tell me why

IllusionIllusion

Illusion in German, just like in English, refers to a deceptive appearance or impression. It's a word that carries a sense of unreality or false hope.

In Pietro Lombardi's song "Warum," he questions, "War es eine Illusion?" (Was it an illusion?). This perfectly captures the feeling of heartbreak and confusion when a relationship that seemed perfect turns out to be something less real or lasting than he believed.

Pietro Lombardi's "Warum" ("Why") is about the confusion that follows a breakup that came out of nowhere. He keeps asking why it fell apart so fast when everything had seemed perfect, and he admits he can't quite let her go.

He describes the small, quiet signs of the aftermath: she won't pick up his calls, he checks her stories just to see she's doing okay, and he wonders out loud if he was ever enough for her.

By the end he tries to convince himself he's moved on and forgotten her, only for her to suddenly turn up at his door, undoing that resolve. The song stays in that unresolved space between wanting answers and wanting her back.
