| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| She’ll know you’ve been with me alone
|
| And you can’t take our secret home
|
| So you ask me not to wear cologne
|
| You can wipe the make up off
|
| The lipstick or a little gloss
|
| But fragrance lingers on and on
|
| So you ask me not to wear cologne
|
| You leave my bed and go to hers
|
| Leaving me alone and hurt
|
| I love you whether right or wrong
|
| And you ask me not to wear cologne
|
| I’m not out to hurt someone
|
| Not you, not her, not any one
|
| But I got heartaches of my own
|
| Why, I can’t even wear cologne
|
| Oh but I never meant for this to be
|
| It wasn’t in my heart to cheat
|
| Love has a nature all it’s own
|
| So I willingly gave up cologne
|
| And every time you come to me
|
| I realize I’m in too deep
|
| I know you love us both and I keep holding on
|
| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| You say, «Don't wear cologne»
|
| Oh now what am I ever gonna do
|
| Cause I am so in love with you
|
| I know you love us both
|
| But where do I belong
|
| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| She’ll know you’ve been with me alone
|
| And you can’t take our secret home
|
| So you ask me not to wear cologne
|
| How do I walk away from the greatest love I’ve known
|
| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| Oh you ask me not to wear cologne
|
| You ask me not to wear cologne
|
| She’ll know you’ve been with me alone
|
| And I’m a scent you can’t take home
|
| But will I ever get to wear cologne |
