Dont Tell Me Lyrics - Enter K - Peter Hammill

You don't have to say a thing, 

The silence is sweet, 

We've been together today 

In a way we might never repeat. 

Oh, your head on the pillow, 

The distance in your eyes 

Already you might be 

Rehearsing the word "Goodbye". 

When the evening comes of this perfect day, 

When the shadows run will you look away, 

Will you slip away? 

Don't tell me anything. 

You don't have to say a word, 

All too well I understand 

There's a nervous tension 

In the touch of your gentle hand. 

That makes me afraid 

I've seen you like this before 

The moment you find somebody new 

You find yourself bored. 

Oh, I don't want to lose you. 

When the evening comes of this perfect day, 

When the shadows run will you look away, 

Will you slip away? 

Don't tell me anything.
