"Ask Me Why" Lyrics

by John Lennon and Paul McCartney

As Released by the Beatles (1963)

I love you
'cos 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 near makes me cry
And in time you'll understand the reason 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
'cos 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, you, you.
