Bach in Town

I see you’re back in town，
You’ve been on my mind so much lately，
Thought it could very well be，
Someone else would turn around，
But then I saw your face，
Holy mother of grace，
I quit this place，
And from the confines of my car，
I learned that I could drive considerably far，
To avoid surprises，
Silence suffices，
Even though I’ve wondered these days，
About how it would go，
And what we would say，
Something in me advises，
To leave you to your own devices，
Though I don’t know，
If I’ll see you again，
I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask，
I’ll never ask you，
You’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say，
You’ll never have to，
I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask，
I’ll never ask you，
You’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say，
You’ll never have to，
I had drafted something sweet，
From the memories of jokes we’d tell，
Places we’d meet，
Took the draft out on walks，
Try it out，
Show it around，
Show it off，
And from the corner of my mind，
Came a distant thought，
I felt it climb up to my attention，
Steer my intentions，
And for many weeks in a row，
I thought I should reach out, say，
“I want you to know I’m not mad，
I want to be friendly，
If you’re around，
Would you please tell me，
‘Cause I would love，
To see you again”，
I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask，
I’ll never ask you，
You’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say，
You’ll never have to，
I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask，
I’ll never ask you，
You’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say，
You’ll never have to，
I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask, I’ll never ask，
I’ll never ask you，
You’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say, you’ll never say，
You’ll never have to。
