"How Insensitive" lyrics

"How Insensitive"

How insensitive I must have seemed
When you told me that you loved me
How unmoved and cold I must have seemed
When you told me so sincerely

Why you might have asked
Did I just turn and stare away in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do when a love affair is over?

Now I'm alone
And I see all the heartache in your last look
Vague and drawn and sad I see it still
All the memory of that last look

Why you might have asked
Did I just turn and went in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do when a love affair is over?
