The Cure

I couldn't hear a word you said

I couldn't hear at all

You talked until your tongue fell out

And then you talked some more

I knew if I turned

I'd turn away from you

And I couldn't look back

Tell yourself we'll start again

Tell yourself it's not the end

Tell yourself it couldn't happen

Not this way

Not today
