Lyrics for Song: Don't Wanna Talk
Lyrics for Album: My Old Familiar Friend [2009]
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
You can't let it go, you won't stay away
You don't wanna know that we're caught in the sway
So this is goodbye and that is the door
I don't wanna try with you anymore, yeah
Don't wanna talk now, don't wanna know why
You say you're lonely, well baby so am I
Don't wanna hear about it, don't want you coming 'round
You wanna make me weak, you wanna beat me down
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
You don't seem to see, it just doesn't stick
You're proving to be a hard habit to kick
Addicted to you and I can't get enough
So what can we do when you make it so tough?
Don't wanna talk now, don't wanna know why
You say you're lonely, well baby so am I
Don't wanna hear about it, just wanna tune you out
You wanna make me scream, you wanna make me shout
You wanna make me shout, make me shout
I hear you loud and clear but now I fear this ear I'm lending
Is falling off and all is lost and it seems never ending
You're tightening your grip while my mind goes slack
A crack of the whip makes me only bite back
I love you so much and I don't wanna leave
You're soft to the touch and hard to believe
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
I hear you loud and clear but now I fear this ear I'm lending
Is falling off and all is lost and it seems never ending
You don't seem to see, it just doesn't stick
You're proving to be a hard habit to kick
I hear you loud and clear but now I fear this ear I'm lending
Is falling off and all is lost and it seems never ending
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
On and on and on about it
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
