Hush, don't talk now

It won't change anything anyhow

Just hold me while the shadows bring us near

I know you're not in love with me

I'm not askin' you to be

And there's no use pretending why we're here



You don't need to try and fool me

You don't need to lead me on

You don't need to say you love me

I've been around enough to know



Wait, don't tell a lie

Cause I just might believe it tonight

And I know you're only tryin' to ease your mind

But don't worry it's all right

I don't care if it's wrong or it's right

Just hold me close and love me one more time



You don't need to try and fool me

You don't need to lead me on

You don't need to say you love me

I've been around enough to know



You don't need to say you love me

I've been around enough to know
