What You Didn't Say

Lyrics

I can read your eyes just like a book
 You tell me different but I know that look
 And I don't have to guess what's between the lines
 
 So what in the world am I still doing here
 You push me away when I get too near
 Saying love's too simple to analyze
 ♪
 So why do I feel confused
 Why do I feel so used
 Like a worn-out thought you threw away
 It wasn't what you said,it's what you didn't say
 ♪
 Where are the windows, where are the doors
 I haven't the key to your heart anymore
 I haven't a clue to what's gone wrong
 ♪
 'Cause you look at me sometimes as if I weren't there
 You say you're listening but you never hear
 The strains of silence have grown so strong
 ♪
 I never wanted to doubt you
 But I'd be better off without you
 I'm no good at looking the other way
 It wasn't what you said,it's what you didn't say
 ♪
 So look at me one last time
 With eyes that still know how to shine
 Hold me like you won't let go
 But you let go anyway
 ♪
 No one belongs where they're not wanted
 You're just a ghost and my heart is haunted
 When I said goodbye
 You didn't even beg me to stay
 It wasn't what you said,it's what you didn't say
 No, baby, it wasn't what you said,it's what you...
