Don’t Speak (Alternate Version)
[Verse 1]
You and me
We used to be together
Every day together, always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe this could be the end
[Pre-Chorus 1]
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real, well, I don't want to know
[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinkin'
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
[Verse 2]
Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogеther mighty frightening, oh
[Pre-Chorus 2]
As we diе, both you and I
With my head in my hands I sit and cry
[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
No, no, no, no, don't speak
I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
[Bridge]
Oh, it's all ending
I gotta stop pretending
Who we are
Who are we, ah
[Mellotron Solo]
[Verse 3]
You and me
I can see us dyin'
Are we?
[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
No, no, don't speak
I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts!
I know what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't speak, don't speak
Don't speak, oh
