Heather Headley Lyrics
"What's Not Being Said"

You said you loved
Said I was everything you wanted in a woman
You said you needed me
You said no place on Earth happier than our home
You said ain't nothin' wrong with ya
You said you didn't wanna talk about it
You said "Baby, I'm tired"
Must have been tired of me 'cause you left me hanging

You never said goodbye to me, you just left
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
Sent me a letter with no return address
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
If you wanted me, I wouldn't have to guess
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
If you can't find the right words to express how you feel
I think I'm hearing what's no being said

You said, but now it's time for show and tell
Sent me a letter saying you still care
You say you ain't in love with no one else
And now I'm living everyday blaming myself
So if you have a reason and you ain't speaking up
Why can't you just be a man and tell me I ain't good enough
No, I wasn't dreaming
I know some days, things got rough
You must have been tired of me to just leave me hanging

You never said goodbye to me, you just left
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
Sent me a letter with no return address
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
If you wanted me, I wouldn't have to guess
So I think I'm hearing what's not being said
If you can't find the right words to express how you feel
I think I'm hearing what's no being said

What you're saying to me, I don't wanna believe
I translated your language to find out what you mean
I don't think this is how we should communicate
How could you take our love and throw it all away
I guess that was yesterday
You're hurtin me today 'cause you said goodbye
