Reminds me of the good ole days....I can't tell you why!!!!

Such a smooth groove
The question and emotional plea "I can't tell you why." I totally understand. Why do I stay when I know I should have been long gone.. but every time I try to leave something just keeps pulling me back in..
I LUV THIS SONG TOO AND I CANT TELL YOU WHY EITHER !
I remember this on cassette tape playing this in her Chevy bel air..man! What happened to our music. Simple and meaningful
Think they're talking about two tweakers that need recovery before it breaks them apart.

Best song that the Eagles ever did.
One Of My Favorite Songs:) So So Beautiful:) Timeless:)
Don Felder is one of best pickers ever and Henley fired him. What an a$$ hole!!!!!!!! !
I can't tell you why I love this song so much
Something more jazzy about this than the more familiar rock-a-billy sound off my of their songs. The lead vocal has an almost feminine quality to it. Sweet lyrics and great tune.
I love this song and I can tell you y its tslkin bout love:-)
Hey bfrawley5- i love the eagles and think they are one of the greatest bands ever but after watching the history o t eagles i thiught glen frey came across as being a real jerk- not sure if anyone else agrees....
