lyrics

Please don’t worry, I don’t love you
I had a feeling we were just killing time
Please don’t worry, I won’t miss you
when you go your way and I go mine

And don’t be sorry about the words that you told me
though if I could I would put mine back in my mouth
I spilled them out for the sake of knowing
and now I know that my heart is emptied out

But I can’t stand the glances from afar
from all of your friends–who do they think they are?
making me feel like a lovelorn child
when I was holding a woman’s desire

Please don’t worry, I don’t love you
I was only staring at your lips
and all the time I was looking at you
rest assured that my eyes were just searching for his

And don’t be sorry that you let me down easy
I’d expect no less from such a good, good man
and don’t you fear that you’ve got to appease me
you made me feel as wanted as un-wanted can

So I wrote this to say and put to rest:
Yes, you were in my thoughts, but briefly at best
So if you hear a song that someday rings true
don’t take it to heart, it won’t be about you

Please don’t worry, I don’t love you
Please don’t worry, I don’t love you
Please don’t worry, I don’t love you
Please don’t worry, I don’t love you, I don't love you, I don't love you
Please don't worry, I don't love you
