(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 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 didn`t say
