Don't Ask Me To Love You
Don't ask me to love you
I'd hate to refuse you.
I know you would leave me
I know I would lose you.
While we're close together
It's now or it's never
It can't be forever
Don't ask me to love you.
The hurt of the past love
Made his love my last love.
So take and caress me
Don't ask to possess me.
Don't let your heart trust me
It treats you unjustly
But that's how it must be
Don't ask me to love you.
That Shangri-La feeling
You dance on the ceiling
The wonderful play dreams
You wish they would stay dreams
The nightmare of learning
He won't be returning
The torch is still burning
Don't ask me to love you.
I've had many lovers
They seemed to adore me
They had different covers
But told the same story
A make-believe journey
That ended in sorrow
Don't ask for tomorrow
Don't ask me to love you.
