Don't Ask

I told you once, I think I did

I told you once that I love you more than anything

I see you now, look in your eyes

They look through me, they look on to another side

How can you see these things and not be there, truly be there

How can I even ask you why

Thoughts run, mind flies as I ask you

Can you be there

You say "OhŠ."

You told me once, I think you did

You said you¹d hold me once, once I knew more than I ever could

Til that day, til that hour

I wait, lord I pray, while holding on to another¹s arm

How can you say these things and not be there, truly be there

How can you even ask me why

Thoughts run, mind flies as you ask me

Can I be there

I say "OhŠ"

I told you once, I know I did

I told you once that all we need is honesty

Look to me, look in my eyes

Look for me and I¹ll be there by your side

How can I say these things and not be there, truly be there

How can I even ask you why

Thoughts run, mind flies and I ask me

Will I be there

I say "ohŠ.stop asking"

"Stop asking why"
