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 dont have to guess whats between the lines
So what in the world am i still doing here
You push me away when i get too near
Saying loves 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 wasnt what you said
Its what you didnt say
Where are the windows where are the doors
I havent the key to your heart anymore
I havent a clue to whats gone wrong
&cause you look at me sometimes as if i werent there
You say youre listening but you never hear
The strain of silence have grown so strong
I never wanted to doubt you
But id be better off without you
Im no good at looking the other way
It wasnt what you said
Its what you didnt say
So look at me one last time
With eyes that still know hot to shine
Hold me like you wont let go
But you let go anyway
No one belongs where theyre not
Youre just a ghost and my heart is haunted
When i said goodbye
You didnt even beg to stay
It wasnt what you said
Its what you didnt say
No baby it wasnt what you said
