Please don't speak, listen to what I'm saying
In my arms, I've thought of weighing
Good times on the right and bad times on the other
As the night grew old and day was near
My heart grew cold, I shed no tears
Bad times outweighed the good
It was time to find another

Don't make excuses, don't give explanations
For this pain you cause with much intention
Why don't you go away, let me be?
Just when I thought I knew you, thought that all was right
I take the time to look into your eyes and there I'd see

How could you have overlooked a love so true?
And yet you took my heart placed in your hands
Like on a silver platter
All those lonely nights no longer matter
Life, it seems, is so much sadder
When all love has died and all your dreams are shattered

(Don't make excuses)
Don't make excuses, don't give explanations
[?]
For this pain you cause with much intention
Why don't you go away and let me be?
(Go away and let me be)
Just when I thought I knew you, thought that all was right
(Just when I knew)
I take the time to look into your eyes and there I'd see

No more tears, the pain is finally over
Such long years and we're much older
Time keeps passing by and you are just o memory
But even though you're gone I feel your presence
How I long to teach a lesson
To all fools like you, my heart has grown much colder

(Don't make excuses)
Don't make excuses, don't give explanations
[?]
For this pain you cause with much intention
Why don't you go away and let me be?
(Go away and let me be)
Just when I thought I knew you, thought that all was right
(Just when I knew)
I take the time to look into your eyes and there I'd see

The guilt in your eyes and it was all because of me
