Pete Townshend Never Ask Me lyrics

I passed her once, I passed her twice
Her first reply, just seemed as cold as ice
(Never ask me, if I love you)
I was in doubt, I begin to shout
She kept on laying the same line out
(Never ask me, if I love you)

She said, "Never ask me, if I love you baby
What do you really think, I'm going to say?
Never ask me, if I loved you
'Cause if you don't know now, you never will
And words are still, just words until"

Just tell me once, just tell me twice
And baby, baby, I'll fly to the heights
(Never ask me, if I love you)
I have you near, I kiss your ear
But I'm so insecure, I just gotta hear you saying
(Never ask me, if I love you)

I've just got to pin her down
My heart bleeds for the sound
Of her shouting out she loves me
As it is I sit and guess, my head's in such a mess
What's the use to hold truth above me
Does she really love me?

Never ask me
Never ask me

Never ask me
Never ask me
Never ask me

Never ask me, if I love you
'Cause if you don't know now, you never will
And words are still, just words until

I asked you once, asked you twice
Your first reply, just seemed as cold as ice
(Never ask me, if I love you)
I'm in such doubt, I got to shout
You keep on laying the same lines out
(Never ask me, if I love you)

Please tell me
(Never ask me)
Please tell me
(Never ask me)
Please tell me

I love you
I love you
I love you
