"Don't Say You Love Me" lyrics

Don't, baby don't, don't say you love me
(Don't say you love me)
Don't, please don't, don't say you need me
(Don't say you need me)

You say you'll open up my eyes, make me realize
What a fool I was, for not accepting love
And then you'd win my heart
(Win my heart)
Oh, you say you'll open all the doors, I've kept locked up before
Show me how it feels to have a love that's real
And be my own true sweet heart

But I've paid the price of love before
And I'm afraid to try it any more
Cause once my life was rich by now it's poor

So don't, baby don't, don't say you love me
(Don't say you love me)
Don't, please don't, don't say you need me
(Don't say you need me)

I refuse to be a mere commodity
Set up for a dream outside reality
I don't think is real
(I don't think is real)
Cause I've walked that road before, tried that open door
That'll lead you to no where
There are no rainbows and silver moonbeams there
(Silver beams now)

Ooh and all it takes is that little wave goodbye
And all your dreams have got to wither up and die
I won't love, I don't think I'll try

So don't, baby don't, don't say you love me
(Don't say you love me)
Don't, please don't, don't say you need me
(Don't say you need me)

Keep on walking, don't keep talking
I don't want it, I don't need it

Cause all it takes is that little wave goodbye
And all your dreams have got to wither up and die
I won't love, I don't think I'll try

So don't, baby don't, don't say you love me
(Don't say you love me)
I'm begging don't, please don't, don't say you need me
(Don't say you need me)
Now baby don't, no woman don't, don't say you love me
(Don't say you love me)
