Don’t Ask Why
Neil Finn/Wendy Melvoin

I never been to heaven but it feels alright
And I woke up this morning with a permanent smile
I walk in through your door
Hit the lights and get ready
As we hit the floor let our fingers do the walking
And the yellow pages will be flying through the sky

Maybe someone shook her leg
On a sailboat south of China
But you don’t ask why
Got my picture on your mirror
Got my number on your notice board
And you don’t ask why
Got my heart where I want it
Breathing heavy on her sinker lips
And you don’t ask why
Sometimes life is getting better
And it happens on its own
It’s beyond my control

Don’t get too fast don’t get too slow
You’re messing with the beat like a samba meets a salsa baby
Error gorilla know what I mean
You get the biggest effect from the smallest machine
Who’s that playing like Krupa on her fingertips
And you don’t ask why
Got my picture on your mirror
Got my number on your notice board
And you don’t ask why
Got my heart where I want it breathing heavy on her sinker lips
And you don’t ask why
Somehow life it getting better
And it happens on its own
Where does love come from I don’t know
So come on baby you’re the chosen one
You know exactly what I need
You know exactly when the time has come
Here we go again
