Don't Ask Me Why

Track A3
 
[Verse 1] All the waiters in your grand café Leave their tables when you blink Ohh, every dog must have his every day Every drunk must have his drink [Chorus] Don't wait for answers Just take your chances Don't ask me why [Verse 2] All your life you had to stand in line Still you're standing on your feet Ohh, all your choices made you change your mind Now your calendar's complete [Chorus] Don't wait for answers Just take your chances Don't ask me why [Bridge] Mmm, you can say the human heart Is only make-believe And I am only fighting fire with fire But you are still a victim Of the accidents you leave As sure as I'm a victim of desire [Verse 3] All the servants in your new hotel Throw their roses at your feet Fool them all but baby I can tell You're no stranger to the street [Chorus] Don't ask for favors Don't talk to strangers Don't ask me why [Verse 4] Yesterday you were an only child Now your ghosts have gone away You can kill them in the classic style Now you, "Parlez-vous français ?" [Chorus] Don't look for answers You took your chances Don't ask me why [Outro] Don't ask me why
