Ask Me No Questions
Unveiling Love's Mystery: Johnny Thunders' Timeless Tale
Lyrics
That was then (that was then)
Reflecting on the past, acknowledging a previous time
And now it's today (and now it's today)
Contrasting the past with the present, emphasizing today
Do you remember (do you remember)
Prompting the listener to recall a shared memory
What I used to say... to you
Recalling words spoken to the listener in the past
That was the past (that was the past)
Referring to a specific historical period, distancing from it
And that was the last (and that was the last)
Highlighting the finality of the past mentioned in line 6
Do you remember (do you remember)
Prompting the listener to remember a distant time
How long ago the last was... for lasting you
Asking about the duration since the last interaction
Seems like I never ever learn
Expressing a sense of not learning from past experiences
And it's always my turn to lose
Stating a recurring pattern of personal loss
Ask me no questions
Advising against asking probing questions
And I'll tell you no lies
Committing to honesty if questions are avoided
Ask me no questions
Reiterating the advice not to ask questions
I'll be yours tonight
Offering companionship or connection for the night
Ask me no questions
Repeating the advice to refrain from asking questions
And I'll tell you no lies
Reiterating the commitment to honesty in the absence of questions
Ask me no questions
Emphasizing the avoidance of questions for a specific purpose
I'll be yours tonight
Offering companionship or connection for the night (repeated)
Ah...
An exclamation expressing emotion or realization
