Lyrics: 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
