Don’t Speak Lyrics by Sinead Quinn

Fame Academy

2002

[Verse 1]
You and me, we used to be together
Every day together, always
I really feel that I'm losin' my best friend
I can't believe this could be the end
It looks as though you're lettin' 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 'cos it hurts
Don't speak, I know what you're thinkin'
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts
[Verse 2]
Our memories, they can be inviting
But some are altogether mighty frightеning
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands, I sit and cry
[Chorus]
Don't spеak, I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts (don't!)
Don't speak, I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
[Bridge]
It's all ending
You gotta stop pretending who we are
[Verse 3]
You and me
I can see us dyin', aren't we?
[Chorus]
Don't speak, I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin' (don't tell me)
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts, don't –
Don't speak, I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need your reasons
Don't, don't, don't tell me
(Don't tell me 'cos it hurts)
Don't speak, I know just what you're thinkin'
(I know just what you're sayin')
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts, don't
Don't!
(Don't speak, I know what you're thinkin')
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts
No-oh!
Don't speak, I know just what you're sayin'
So please stop explainin'
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts
Don't!
Don't speak, I know what you're thinkin'
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cos it hurts
