( Breakup love song lyrics )
DON'T TRY TO TELL ME
Copyright © 2010 - MickTerry.com

Leather-strapped watch on my wrist
has its own set of ticks,
usually running fast.
Digital black bedroom clock
never learned how to tock.
Still-, it tracks time passed.
The only time I pay- attention is
wond'ring when I'll see you again.

    DON'T TRY TO TELL ME
    I'm wasting my time over you.
    And DON'T TRY TO sell ME
    I'm losing my mind over you.-

Hours- of seconds drag by.
Who the hell said time flies
when- you're having fun?
Maybe this isn't that much.
Am I los-ing touch?
Aren't- you still the one?
The only time I pay- attention is
wond'ring when I'll see you again.

    CHORUS

        Nothing you can say can convince me
        that any time with you's a mistake.
        Nothing you can say can persuade me
        that any time with you's been a waste.

Seems to me I heard you say
you were going away,
but you're not leaving town.
Could it be I heard you wrong?
Did you say that we're done?
You don't want me around?
The only time I pay- attention is
wond'ring when I'll see you again.

    CHORUS

To other breakup love song lyrics:   BACKING UP
ON THE ROPES
MORNING LIGHT
HIDDEN CORNERS
GET THE FEELING
WISHFUL DRINKING
MAYBE WE'VE HURT
THAT'S GOTTA HURT
TALKING TO MYSELF
YOU WERE THE BEST
YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY
I SOLD MY WIFE ON eBAY
MY EX-'S NEW BOYFRIEND
GOODBYE WAS ALL SHE WROTE
GUESS WHAT I FOUND 'NEATH THE DIRTY FRIDGE?
To the TOP
