What's this in your eyes
Why do you look this way at me
No it's not such surprise
I could have told you she would leave you crying
Like you left me
So now you come and say
That you just want to talk and so
Just let me get it straight
It's over now and I don't really want to know
I don't want to know
I, I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
Who's been letting go
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
I don't want to know
I can't stand the words you say
Talking of lovers who have come
When in darkness I have laid
And I long to feel your body breathing love to me
Keep waking up alone
You think that I'm so strong
You think that you can come and go
Baby you couldn't be more wrong
You can't see how I burn
I really need to know
But I don't want to know
I, I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
Who's been letting go
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
I don't want to know
I, I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
Who's been letting go
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
I don't want to know
I, I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
I, I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
Who's been letting go
I don't want to hear it
I don't want to know
Who's been touching you
I don't want to know
