Lyrics Robert Plant

Robert Plant

Messin' with the Mekon

Oh, don't cross your fingers, cross your heart and soul

Don't ask me the question, God, I just don't know

Sold by my intentions got my emotions on hold

So don't ask me why

You ask how I feel, and what it's like inside

I'm hot in pursuit, I'm bearing down on your hide

Involved in a recovery trying to save my pride

Don't ask me again

Wound up in circumstance beyond my control

Affairs of the heart no longer leave me cold

Oh, what a feeling such a long time ago

Don't ask me again

Get down baby, you're out of control

You leave be my side or you leave on your own

I gotta know what I should know

Don't ask me again

So don't you ask me how I feel and what it's like inside

'Cause at the circumstances babe

You don't mess with my pride

It's just recovery babe, just recovery

Meet me in the middle, please to give and take

Alternative arrangements are there to be made

A new proposition's not a piece of cake

So, don't you ask me

Wound up in circumstance beyond my control

Affairs of the heart no longer leave me cold

Oh, what a feeling such a long time ago

Don't ask me again
