[Verse 1] I've been around but I'm not here to stay Please don't wait Don't hold your breath I'm not worth all the blue in your face [Chorus] Don't ask me why A hundred times why Don't ask me why [Verse 2] I wish it were fate But the winter's too cold to escape Tried to stay silent when I left
But I slammed the gate [Chorus] Don't ask me why A hundred times why Don't ask me why [Verse 3] This time tomorrow I'll be just a tune in your song Don't look out the shades I'm not coming back Baby I'm gone [Chorus] Don't ask me why A hundred times why Don't ask me why
