don't ask me how...


Bitter sweet memories of you..
i see my life
with a birds eye view..
don't ask me how i feel..
oh..yeah..
don't ask me how i feel..

i close my eyes..
i can see your face..
it seems the same..
but of that smile there's no trace..
there's no trace..
i try and look deeper..coz i can't relate..
don't ask me how i feel..
oh..yeah...
don't ask me...how i feel..

i close my eyes..
and think of you..
Ur beside me..
we are looking out of the window at a poster..
your telling me a story..
i can hear my laughter clearly..
but there's something stuck in my throat..
don't ask me how i feel..
oh yeah..
don't ask me..how i feel..

i hate this feeling...
it's so different, it's so new..
I only wish i could forgive you...
Coz it's not easy to relate..
it makes me suffocate..
don't ask me how i feel...
coz in words i can't reveal...
what your love have done...
and what i have become...
