John Barr - Please Don't Ask Me

Please don't ask me
What am I thinkin', 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 light
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 song
And pretend
And I'll keep the secret
Right down to the end

Please don't ask me
Why I'm not talkin' I just can't explain
And please don't ask me
Why I go walkin' 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
