Don't Speak

(album: A Change Is Gonna Come - 2005)

You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
Like I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end

It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know

Don't speak
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

(oohw owh...)

Our memories
They can be inviting
Sometimes

As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I start to cry

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

It's all ending
Let's stop pretending who we are [2x]

You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
Like I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining

Don't speak,
Don't speak,
Don't speak,
Oh I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good,
I know you're good,
I know you're real good
Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darling
Hush, hush darling Hush, hush
Don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
Hush, hush darling Hush, hush darling
Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
