Ask Me Why

Release date: 11 January 1963

I love you,
Cause you tell me things I want to know,
And it's true that it really only goes to show
That I know that I-I-I-I should never, never, never be blue.

Now you're mine,
My happiness still makes me cry.
And in time you'll understand the reasons why
If I cry it's not because I'm sad
But you're the only love that I've ever had.

I can't believe it's happened to me.
I can't conceive of any more misery.
Ask me why
I'll say I love you and I'm always thinking of you.

I love you,
Cause you tell me things I want to know,
And it's true that it really only goes to show
That I know that I-I-I-I should never, never, never be blue.

Ask me why
I'll say I love you and I'm always thinking of you.

I can't believe it's happened to me.
I can't conceive of any more misery.
Ask me why
I'll say I love you and I'm always thinking of you.
