Don't ask why
(Don't ask why)
The drain
The drain
Sixteen candles down the drain
(Don't ask why)
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
Sixteen Candles down the drain
I wish I'd loved you, I wish I'd loved you
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
The drain
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
It said, "I loved you, yeah, I loved you"
And on your note is my reply
Don't ask why
(Don't ask why)
Don't ask why
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
And I think you're drunk, I start to laugh
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
Sixteen candles down the drain
I watch you passed out for awhile
The drain
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
Don't ask why
(Sixteen candles down the drain)
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Wilted flowers in a vase
The drain
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
I ask how are you? Yeah, how are you?
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Don't ask why
Touch your face and start to smile
(Don't ask why)
I find your note, the letters ran
(Don't ask why)
The drain
I see your lipstick on your glass
(Don't ask why)
The drain
