Lyrics Ron Sexsmith

Ron Sexsmith

Don't Ask Why

Don't feel the need to get to the bottom of

The love light in your eyes

As the leaves fall prey to autumn

I don't ask why

Don't give my feelings the third degree

No need to think twice

As long as I've got you for me

I don't ask why

I don't ask why

What good would it do me knowing

How it all looks from behind

My soul's got its own game going

I'm just flowing blind

It's said in wisdom there's so much grief

Why try?

If the answer brings no relief

It's better to laugh or cry

I used to worry what change might bring

Those days have gone by

Since worrying don't change a thing

I don't ask why

I don't ask why

What good would it do me knowing

How it all works anyway

My heart's got its own dream going

I'm just happy to play

It's said in wisdom there's so much grief

Like a child?

If the answer brings no relief

It's better to laugh or cry

And if we chased the stars and caught 'em

How would they still shine?

Don't feel the need to get to the bottom of

The love light in your eyes

I don't ask why

No I don't ask why
