the above link is so anyone can listen to the sketch of the music... the lyrics at this point are as follows...
(note: trust me, you *really* wouldnt want me to try to "sing" along to what i'm doing (just trust me, lol, i cant sing) in MY head I can sort of hear a good ballad singer doing it well... i was hoping the words follow the music enough one got the idea, but, that could easily be just because i wrote the piano part(s) and they suggested the lyrics that developed... in MY mind they are "married", I realize it prolly isnt like that for everyone else...
all critiques welcome, good bad or ugly, LMAO

=========================================================
Lay-in her 'n watch-in', You, safe and sleep-in'
Helps me keep for-got-ten, Places that I've been ...
Dont ask..... Dont ask...
Sit-tin' here and hop-in', that you con-tin-ue sleep-in'
I'm scared if you a-wak-en, you'll not-ice that I'm cry-in'
(but) Dont ask..... Dont ask...
watch me keep a sec-ret well that you dont have to know
(chorus)
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Scar-let, swirlin' all aroun'...
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Red mist, fallin' to the groun'...
Dont ask, 'n I wont have to tell... you-oo-oo-oo
(pause)
mov-ies in my mind, too ter-ri-ble to see,
sleep or when a-wak-ened, night-mare just for me
(but) Dont ask..... Dont ask...
hope you nev-er won-der 'cos then I'd have to tell
dont think i could lie to you I think its just as well
(but) Dont ask..... (please) Dont ask...
used to be a mon-ster and it was not long a-go
(chorus)
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Scarlet, swirlin' all aroun'...
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Red mist, fallin' to the groun'...
Dont ask... 'n I wont have to tell... you-oo-oo-oo
(pause)
Used to wait on hill-top, hid-den out out of sight
no one ever saw me, used to wait all night
(but) Dont ask..... Dont ask...
man-u-fac-tured thun-der, roll a-cross the sky
brill-iant burst of light-ning there was no place they could hide
(but) Dont ask... (please) Dont ask...
think I've seen the Dev-il an' he looks a lot like me
(chorus)
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Scarlet, swirlin' all aroun'
Dont ask... I Dont wanna tell... Red rain, fallin' to the groun'...
Dont ask, 'n I wont have to tell... you-oo-oo-oo
(sudden end)
