Silent Treatment Lyrics - Earl Thomas Conley

You proved to me that I don't need 

To be all by myself to feel alone, 

But lately conversation only comes 

When someone's calling on the phone, 

Oh, but I'm not asking questions 

Afraid that I might find out 

What's really wrong 

You give me that silent treatment 

I can take it or leave 

I'm getting that silent treatment 

And it's working on me 

Oh, but leaving off all the changes 

I remember back when our love 

It didn't hurt 

Like when I'd wake up close beside you, 

And you'd just lay there begging me 

Stay home from work, 

Now you don't like to talk about it 

But lately we've been missing 

More than words 

I'm getting that silent treatment 

I can take it or leave 

You give me that silent treatment 

And it's working on me 

On me, on me, you got it working 

Working on me
