DON'T TELL ME

(Updated mix 13th Feb 2017)

DON’T TELL ME

Don’t tell me what is new
I don’t want to see the future through
Just call my name out loud
Like you used to do
And tell me I’m old-fashioned
The way you used to do

Don’t Don't Don't Don't

Don’t tell me how it is
The world turned while I slumbered
Don’t tell me I’ll be fine
On my own forever
Just tell me I’m old-fashioned
I really loved those days

Don’t Don't Don't Don't

We liked to walk those rolling hills
I liked to watch you brush your hair
We liked to cuddle on the couch
You said you’d be coming straight back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back now

We liked the sun between the trees
In those autumn days
And now the Autumn’s always here
And it will never leave

So don’t tell me what is new
I don’t want to see the future through
Don’t tell me how it is
The world turned while I slumbered...
(Don't)
Don’t tell me (Don't) what is new
I don’t want to see (Don't) the future through (Don't)
Don’t tell me how it is (Don't)
The world turned (Don't)while I slumbered...
