Lyrics
Can we do this once again?
Smile and play pretend
and call each other friends
out of need
You say we'd never end
time and time again
This should be what we mend
Don't you see?
But you don't say a word
You don't say a word
to me
You don't say a word
You don't say a word
but sorry
Can we do this once again?
Smile and play pretend
and call each other friends
out of need
You say we'd never end
time and time again
This should be what we mend
Don't you see?
But you don't say a word
You don't say a word
to me
You don't say a word
You don't say a word
but sorry
You say you're never leaving
but it's obvious you're gone
You try to justify this time
but still I think you're wrong
Well you know just what you're doing
Does it help you sleep at night?
Does it clear your guilty conscience
when you know that I'm alright?
'Cause you don't say a word
You don't say a word
to me
You don't say a word
You don't say a word
but sorry
