Don't Answer Me - Cilla Black

I’m asking you to tell me why

You leave me as often as you do

Am I to be your used to be

Can I be losing you?

I tell myself, I’ve got to know

But every part of me is saying, «No»

Don’t answer me, don’t answer me

I’m so afraid you’ll say you want me to go

Why can’t I be happy

To be with you now and then?

For now and then’s better

Than never again

I don’t know why I’m asking you

When I know what it may be leading to

Don’t answer me, don’t answer me

Not if you’re gonna tell me that we’re through

Don’t answer me, oh, don’t answer me

For I’ll be left with nothing if I lose you
