Lyrics
I guess I've lived enough to know it's true,
Don't believe what people say, but what they do.
And now, my dear, the time has come for me and you,
And you don't have to say a word.
I've loved you long enough, I can see it on your face,
Your searching for the words and trying to explain.
And now, my dear, you ain't got to tell no lies,
You don't even have to try.
We can take it slow and get use to the fact.
We ain't in love no more and that should settle that.
Well maybe we'll stay here 'til tomorrow,
Making love just a little longer,
And you don't have to say a word.
I remember when we met, way back when
I had my eyes on you when you had your eyes on him
Through all these years, it looks like nothing's really changed,
You ain't got to say a thing.
We can take it slow and get use to the fact.
We ain't in love no more and that should settle that.
Well maybe we'll stay here 'til tomorrow,
Making love just a little bit longer,
And you don't have to say a word.
I know I've lived enough to say it's true,
You don't believe what people tell you, but watch what they do.
And now, my dear, there is no need to explain,
You ain't go to say a thing.
You ain't got to say one word.
