How Do You Tell Someone (you Don't Love Them) Song Lyrics
How Do You Tell Someone (you Don't Love Them) by Cowboy Junkies Tina says, "Don't talk to me like I am deaf and dumb,"
"We've broken down and broken up so much that I am numb."
"Talk about, don't shout about, the people we've become."
There's a little girl who's crying over here.
Michael says, "Don't shout at me like I was born a fool,"
"You speak of love then scream of love, now dare to treat me cruel."
"Nothing's fair in love and war, so please let's make some rules."
There's a little boy who's crying over here.
Did you really know me? I swear that I have tried.
Did you really need me? I feel like I just died.
Did you really want me? I swear that I have tried.
How do you tell someone you don't love them?
How do you tell someone you don't care anymore?
How do you tell someone you don't love them anymore?
Tina says, "The pictures that we took are put away,"
"Inside a box of memories, for cold and rainy days."
"Poems in pencil rhyming with the things you'd never say."
There's a little girl who's crying over here.
Michael's old engagement picture's in a wooden box.
His wooden heart is tough as nails and solid as a rock.
Keeps himself protected with a combination lock.
There's a little boy who's crying over here.
Did you ever know me? I swear that I have tried.
Did you ever need me? I feel like I just died.
Did you ever want me? I swear that I have tried.
How do you tell someone you don't love them?
How do you tell someone you don't care anymore?
How do you tell someone you don't love them anymore?
(Fighting makes me tired.) In my eyes...
(Crying makes me tired.) There's a star...
(Hurting makes me tired.) Hold me tight...
(Lying makes me tired.)
Tina says, "I wish that I had never seen you smile."
"Your name is written on my soul in alphabetic file."
"All I've got's my dignity, so i will leave in style."
There's a million of us crying over here.
Did you ever know me? I swear that I have tried.
Did you ever need me? I feel like I just died.
Did you ever want me? I swear I swear...
How do you tell someone you don't love them?
How do you tell someone you don't care anymore?
How do you tell someone you don't love them anymore?
How do you tell someone you don't love them?
How do you tell someone you don't care anymore?
How do you tell someone you don't love them anymore?
Every time I talk to you, there's no one listening.
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there.
And every where I look for you, you're no where to be found...
