Lyrics for Don't Say Nothing at All

If you can't say that you still love me Don't tell me no lies when you call If you can't say that you still need me Then why say anything at all? If you can't say that you're sorry For all the tears you caused before If you can't tell, my heart is breakin' Then why say anything at all? It's better not to speak a word If those crumbs of tongue cause you pain It's better not to let it be heard Those lies you tell in vain So if you can't say I'm still your baby Then all you say on deaf ears fall Just walk away without a word, dear And don't say nothin' at all Please, don't say nothin' at all
