You Never Talked About Me

(album: Hats Off To Del Shannon - 1962)

I went down to the railroad station, honey
I overheard a conversation, honey
Yeah you we're talking to a guy named Jim
And the things that you we're telling him

You talked and talked so endlessly
Tears filled my eyes, I couldn't see
'Cause you never talked about me, honey, about me, honey

You talked about your past and future, honey
About the kind of man you thought would suit you, honey
And you told him what a man should do
If he wants to be love by you

You talked and talked so endlessly
Tears filled my eyes, I couldn't see
'Cause you never talked about me, honey, about me, honey

You told me there would be
Anyone else for you
You swore your love was true
How could you do this to me
Making me cry like that
My heart could die like that

The stars come out by the railroad station, honey
You carried on your conversation, honey
And then he kissed you and I heard you sigh
It was time for me to say goodbye
You kissed and kissed so endlessly
Tears filled my eyes, I couldn't see
'Cause you never talked about me, honey
About me, honey
