Don’t Ask Why

After a breakup, your friends pester you, wanting to know all the details, but you may not even be sure yourself. All you know is that you are sad, but hopeful for the future...a rainbow in the sky!


Don’t Ask Why

Don’t ask why
It’s one of life’s great mysteries
I’ll never really know the reason [s]he left me

Don’t ask how
Why does it even matter now?
I’ll never learn the way love sometimes plays its hand
I’ll never understand
If it’s all planned

Like a rainbow
That shines in the sky
We just don’t know
All the reasons why
Things just happen
It’s out of our control…so

Don’t ask who
Strange as it is even I don’t know
I thought I knew her[him] since we met so long ago

Don’t ask when
I’m not prepared to start again
I’ll find another if the time is right for me
When I can hardly wait to see
What life brings to me

Like a rainbow
That shines in the sky
We just don’t know
All the reasons why
Things just happen
It’s out of our control….so

Don’t ask why….
