You Don't Say

When it's laid before me

Down that body

Down that road.

And all that may befall me

And whether you were mine alone.

You don't say. You don't say.

All that sweetness hummin'

A single word I have not earned

'Cause souls like yours are something

Men like me don't deserve.

'Cause I ain't good at loving.

Though I'll tell you something,

It ain't that hard.

And there must be someone out there,

Who calls you theirs, love

Who'll take your arm.

You don't say. You don't say.

You don't say. You don't say.

Why don't you ask your brother to give you away?

You don't say. You don't say.

When it's laid before me

Down that body

Down that road

And all that's out there waiting

And whether you were mine alone.

You don't say. You don't say.

You don't say. You don't say.

Why don't you ask your brother to give you away?

You don't say. You don't say.
