[Intro]
[Verse]
()
Most days, I wake when the sunshine crawls into my bed
Fit as a fiddle when the world wakes up
Taking a drink from a golden cup
Most days, I m looking on the bright side of an open door
Swing your partner and do-si-do
My feet keep telling me to go, go, go
[Chorus]
Cross my heart, but I don t ask why
Some nights I can t help but cry
Young life, it s fragile as a daisy in an open field
With a bit of good luck you re a flower crown
Or else the rain ll come to knock you down
Bad news, it hit me like a freight train goin so fast
Standin in the rain where the daisies grow
Prayin to a god that I don t know
[Chorus]
Cross my heart, but I don t ask why
Some nights I can t help but cry
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiide
Put the shovel in the ground
Don t ask why
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Don t ask why
Whether it s your heart that s broken or your brother s mind
Little sister running home with a blackened eye
I don t ask why, I don t ask why
[Chorus]
Cross my heart and I hope to die
Some nights I can t help but cry
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiiiide
Put the shovel in the ground
Don t ask why
[Instrumental]
