Don't Hold me and tell me that everything's gonna be fine Don't Tell me how my love for you will grow deeper in time Here as I stand in the light of day I move my lips But No one hears one word I say So don't Carry my suitcase and tell me how lovely I look Don't Dream of me ironing the sheets or learning to cook Ow Yesterday was a long time ago If only I Knew Then what it is I now know Is anybody out there? Doesn't anybody understand? Love is not a contract Made between a woman and a man Don't Tell me that dreams are devised for the young and for fools Don't Kiss me and tell me that we can rewrite all the rules Here as I stand in the light of day I move my lips But No one hears one word I say Is anybody out there? Doesn't anybody understand? Love is not a handshake Made between a woman and a man Don't Whisper I love you and tell me it's all for the best Don't Tell me I'm tired, I'll feel better once I get some rest
