Transcript

00:00 I don't need to read you girl, you told me what you'd do

00:10 If our lines got crossed then I'd lost all hope of holding you

00:15 Rhythm tic and party tricks aren't all you'll ever discover

00:27 These children's games have grown up names but who you trying to fool?

00:33 With your backdoor eyes and little white lies keeping you protected

00:38 You say you saw the risk involved running from the unexpected

00:46 And you said I must have more than trust when I offer you my heart

00:52 Only now you say we're better this way apart

00:58 'Cause you're all alone in your father's home doing as you're told

01:03 And the more you wait you'll isolate yourself from all you hold

01:09 Oh near to you, dear to you, oh everything we planned

01:14 Have you now denied in the light of another land?

01:19 I won't believe you no matter what you say

01:26 So don't try to act like your heart's intact when I can see the pieces on the floor

01:37 Don't try to say that I'm in your way, that you don't love me anymore

01:46 I won't believe you, I won't believe you when you say you're numb

01:52 Or your time has come to the point of no return

01:56 That the feeling is gone and the lesson is one you had to live to learn

02:02 Oh don't my letters reach you girl, don't they even mean a thing?

02:07 By the time you read them are they wasted on the wind?

02:12 I won't believe you, I won't believe you

02:17 [Instrumental]

02:47 So you gave up hope 'cause you could not cope when your heart began to beat

03:00 Now you're sure being insecure is the very last thing you need

03:05 So self-defense makes perfect sense you told me all the while

03:11 That the only thing you wanna wake up with is a smile

03:15 But as the weeks go by the more you cry the less you have to give

03:22 And your heart of reason guarantees no reason left to live

03:27 Don't my letters reach you girl, don't they even mean a thing?

03:33 By the time you read them are they wasted on the wind?

03:37 I won't believe you when you insist that once I missed a chance to make you mine

03:47 From that moment on you're as good as gone and all it takes is time

03:53 That may be true if I only knew how I let you slip away

04:01 I won't believe you, I won't believe you

04:07 Oh I won't believe you, I don't need to read you girl, you warned me what you'd say

04:15 So I let it down right off the bat when your head was laid

04:21 I don't need to read you girl, you warned me what you'd say

04:27 I won't believe you

04:31 Don't my letters reach you girl, don't they even mean a thing?

04:37 Thanks for watching!
