What You Didn¡¯t Say

What You Didn¡¯t Say
(mary-chapin carpenter)
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 strain 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 hot to shine
hold me like you won¡¯t let go
but you let go anyway
No one belongs where they¡¯re not
you¡¯re just a ghost and my heart is haunted
when i said goodbye
you didn¡¯t even beg to stay
it wasn¡¯t what you said
it¡¯s what you didn¡¯t say
no baby it wasn¡¯t what you said
