I set the seat to tell the tale
Who could have known his face would pale?
Life is never what you want
Unless you plan it from the start
Now wouldn't that be smart?
Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love is about
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound
So this is how it always goes
And what is real, we'll never know
Trust me now, I know firsthand
My fiction leaves my real life and
This isn't what I planned
Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love's about
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound
My melody's my malady, my hand inscribes my grave
I told you once, I'll tell you twice, there's nothing left to say
I don't know what I've been told, my memory escaped
So don't try to refresh my mind if reason did that way
Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love's about
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound
Don't make a sound
Your love made it safe for me
But the love you gave, you took away from me
Who would've seen I believed in you?
But whoever was thinking love was true?
Selfishly you broke my heart
You had me foolin' from the start
Still I just won't regret
I thought you're gone, I can't forget
Why when the love is gone
Why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Oh, why when the love is gone
Tell me why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Your love was sweet when it started
But now I find it leaves me brokenhearted
Why did you swear to always care?
Then you walk away and leave me in despair
Heartlessly you told me lies
Plan another time to say goodbye
You're still life's just one regret
My whole life is gone, I can't forget
Why when the love is gone
Why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Oh, why when the love is gone
Tell me why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Ooh, ooh
Selfishly you told me lies
Plan another time to say goodbye
Still I have but one regret
Our whole love is gone, I can't forget
Why when the love is gone
Tell me why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Oh, why when the love is gone
Ooh, why does my heart keep pumpin' on?
Oh, why, ooh, why?
Oh, why, ooh, why?
Tell me why, ohh, why?
Oh, why, ooh, why?
Tell me why
