If You Don't, Don't

What's wrong baby?

Don't they treat you like they should?

Did you take them for it

Every penny that you could?

We once walked out on the beach

And once i almost touched your hand

O, how i dreamed to finally say such things

Then only to pretend

Don't you know i'm thinking?

(don't you know i'm thinking)

Driving 4:05 past midnight

You know i miss you

(don't you know that i miss you)

Ninth and ash on a tuesday night

I would write to you from a museum mile

I toast to you :

Your whisper

Your smile

Up the stairs at the weatherford

A ghost each place i hide

If you don't know, why'd you just say so?

Would you mean this please if it happens?

If you don't know, why would you just say so?

Won't you get your stories right?

If you don't know, honey why'd you just say so?

When i need this now more then i ever did

If you don't know, well honey, then you don't

I left you waiting

(o, i left you waiting)

At the least could we be friends?

Should have never started

(never started)

Ain't that the way it always ends?

All my life i'll try today

Theres so much i've felt i should say

But even if your heart would listen i doubt i could explain

If you don't know, why'd you just say so?

Would you mean this please if it happens?

If you don't know, why would you just say so?

Won't you get your stories right?

If you don't know, honey why'd you just say so?

Cause i need this now more then i ever did

If you don't know, well honey, then you don't

So here we are now

A sip of wine

A sip of water

Someday maybe (someday maybe)

Maybe someday we'll be smarter

And i'm sorry that i'm such a mess

I drank all my money could get,

I took everything that you had and never loved you back

If you don't know, why'd you just say so?

Would you mean this please if it happens?

If you don't know, why would you just say so?

Won't you get your story straight?

If you don't know, honey why'd you just say so?

Cause i need this

If you don't know, well honey, then you don't
