Poésie Noire - I didn't ask - Lyrics

(written by Casters, Valvekens)

Hi Jo. This is Marianne. God, I hate these machines
Come on pick up the phone. I know you're there

I am the only one, the only one I need
I am the only one, the only one I need
I am the only one, the only one I need
All I need is the air that I breathe

Please don't come too close to me
I'm sweet and violent, can't you see
Today there is no time to spare
No more intimacy to share

I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me

Me and myself I am the only one I need
Don't want no company. Just me 'n the air to breathe.

Don't ask me. Tonight I won't explain
"I will carry my own pain"
I can't go on like this I need another drink
Sink to the bottom and give me time to think

And my devils have all been released
My eyes wide opened but my lips are sealed
I won't talk. I know that you won't mind
Please be gentle. Please be kind

I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me

Me and myself I am the only one I need
Don't want no company. Just me 'n the air to breathe.

I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me
I didn't ask you - you didn't ask me

I am the only one, the only one I need
Don't need no company. Just me 'n the air to breathe.
I am the only one, the only one I need
All I need is the air that I breathe.

I am the only one, the only one I need
Don't need no company. Just me 'n the air to breathe.
I am the only one, the only one I need
All I need is the air that I breathe.

I am the only one, the only one I need
Don't seek no company. Just me 'n the air to breathe.
