DON'T SPEAK

  You and me
  We used to be together
  Every day together always

  I really feel
  I'm losing my best friend
  I can't believe
  This could be the end

  It looks as though you're letting go
  And if it's real,
  Well I don't want to know

  Don't speak
  I know just what you're saying
  So please stop explaining
  Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

  Our memories
  They can be inviting
  But some are altogether
  Mighty frightening

  As we die, both you and I
  With my head in my hands
  I sit and cry

  CHORUS

  It's all ending
  I gotta stop pretending who we are...
  You and me
  I can see us dying...are we?

  CHORUS

  No doubt
