Please Don't Ask Me

(album: Too Late To Load - 1988)

Please don't ask me what am I thinking,
It's about you,
Please don't ask me,
I never can see you, what can I do?

My first impulse is to run to your side,
My heart's not free, and so I must hide,
Please don't ask me what I'm gonna say to you.

I toss and turn, can't sleep at night,
It's worrying me, I go to bed, turn out the lights,
But your face I see.

It only hurts the more I pretend,
That we could ever be more than friends,
Please don't ask me why I'm so in love with you.

You could easily make me happy, that I know,
But I'll try my best to never tell you so,
I will sing to you my love songs, and pretend,
And I'll keep the secret right down to the end.

Please don't ask me why I'm not talking, I just can't explain,
And please don't ask me why I go walking, out in the rain.

I could not live the lie it would take,
To have you near would be a mistake,
Please don't ask me why I'm still in love with you.
No please don't ask me.
