Hold on tight she wears the suit
It's got four stars in the sky
It's still forbidden to excuse
That little look in your eye
I was busted in my gut that time
That time I said I know it's [bad word] 
Why didn't I ask (x4)

Can't believe she's married to rope
I would've turned down the light
Was she always marked by fear
Doesn't make it all right
I wanted to stay there
But you know I needed you more than that

Why didn't I ask (x4)

Why didn't I ask (x8)
