Lyric She Doesn t Ask

(Nancy Lee Baxter)

He s distant most of the time
He s busy too much on his mind
He rarely answers her back
She doesn t ask

He tiptoes in late at night
He changes without the light
He s been this way in the past
So she doesn t ask

She doesn t ask
If he s still working overtime
She doesn t ask
If he s coming or going
She s tired of the same old lines
She doesn t ask

She s loved him
Through all the years
Three children and two careers
She wonders if it will last
But she doesn t know

She doesn t ask
Why they re living such different lives
She doesn t ask
Why they sleep in the same bed
Always on separate sides
She doesn t ask

Will he cry when she is gone
Will he stay lonely for long
Does he know she won t be back
She doesn t ask
