Hold on tight she wears the seek
It's got more stars than the sky
It's still forbidden to excuse
That little look in your eye
I was busted in my gut that time
That time i said 'i know it's true'
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?

I can't believe she's married to roe
I would have turned down the light
But she always marked my fear
Doesn't make it alright.
I wanted to stay there
But you know i needed more than that
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i?

Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
Why didn't i ask? why didn't i ask?
