If You'd Only Talk To Me

If nothing I can do or say
Will make you change your mind and stay
Nothing you could tell me now
Would leave me hope for one more day
But if you'd only talk to me
Waiting for a single letter
I will cling to memories
Hide away and tell myself
That all I have is all I need
But if you'd only talk to me
And now I wish I'd kept my one mistake to myself
But I just couldn't bear to lose you
And you'd have heard it all wrong
Sooner or later from somebody else
So I gave you the truth
But I would rather be living a lie
And maybe you'd have never known
And stayed with me at home
And though I live in hope I feel so ...
There would come a day believe me
Bitter memories growing old
Just remembering all the good things
Long before the truth was told
If you'd only talk to me
And now I wish I'd kept my one mistake to myself
But I just couldn't bear to lose you
And you'd have heard it all wrong
Sooner or later from somebody else
So I gave you the truth
But I would rather be living a lie
If nothing I can do or say
Will make you change your mind and stay
Nothing you could tell me now
Would leave me hope for one more day
But if you'd only talk to me
