James Arthur
Don’t Speak
[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]
It looks as though
You're let go
And if it's real, then I don't want to know

[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need no reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

[Verse 2]
Yeah, yeah, nah
Don't speak
I can tell what you've been thinkin'
I'm sellin' my soul
And you've been permanently drinkin'
Don't speak
'Cause I can feel the walls evaporatin'
From cloud nine to this
I can feel my heart deflatin'
[Achin' pains?] within a chain
Of images I wished away
The day I met you
Then I wouldn't have to regret you
Look, I'm sorry
But I'm gonna have to forget
Just know that I love you
And will forever respect you
Now
[Bridge]
It's all ending
We gotta stop pretending
Who we are

[Chorus]
Don't, oh, ah
Oh, don't, please don't
Don't, don't tell me 'cause it hurts, oh, nah
And don't speak
I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need no reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
