If you know all the why’s and how’s
And there are no surprises, you never guess
And if you control my was, my next, my now
And you have marked out all my steps
Then why should I ask you
It seems like I never change your mind
And you hardly ever say, “Yes”
Is talking to you just a waste of time?
Do you want me to save my breath?
Tell my why should I ask you
You know my heart like the back of your hand
You hold me with everything inside your plan
You tell me, “No” when I don’t understand…
And you know me, you hold me
And when it’s good for me, you say, “No” to me
And that is why I ask you
