[Verse 1] I told him that I loved him, that I wanted him for life He told me I was sexy but he didn't want a wife So I let him lay me down thinking I could change his mind But I was wrong, oh I was wrong
[Verse 2] He knew about the birthmark in the middle of my back But he didn't know my favourite colour and he didn't care to ask I just turned the other cheek and forgot about the past And moved along and I wrote this song
[Chorus] Sticks and stones can break your bones But nothing hurts like a silent foe And I've been beaten half to death by all the words he never said Oh I love him but I hate love Feels so good 'til things get rough It's all here inside my head All the words he never said All the words he never said
[Verse 3] It's been a good five days since I woke up and he was gone It's been a good five days since I could sleep from dusk to dawn Oh this big red muscle in my chest it ain't very strong anymore, anymore
[Chorus] Oh sticks and stones can build a home But it all hurts 'cause I'm alone I've been been beaten half to death by all the words he never said Oh I love him but I hate love Feels so good 'til things get rough I'm laying in this lonely bed With all the words he never said All the words he never said And all the dreams that that boy fed With all the words he never said
[Outro] I told him that I loved him, that I wanted him for life He told me I was sexy but he didn't want a wife So I let him lay me down thinking I could change his mind But I was wrongTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
