Talk Back Trembling Lips

(album: Especially For You - 1964)

Talk back trembling lips, shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let him know he's getting through to you
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes don't start crying
Heart don't let him know that you're breaking in two

Everyday our love's a battle royal
Lately it seems that fighting is all we do
But if I let him know how much I love him
He'll do things to me he shouldn't do

Talk back trembling lips, shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let him know that he's getting through to you
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes don't start crying
Heart don't let him know that you're breaking in two

Every time you up and hurt my feelings
I pretend it couldn't matter less
But I'm just hiding all of my emotions
Behind my broken heart I guess

Talk back trembling lips, shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let him know he's getting through to you
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes don't start crying
Heart don't let him know that you're breaking in two
