1/17/08 - Fixed the chord timing in the beginning.
Spoken:
So, you’re leaving, aren’t you?
I knew it when you said just then when you told me you were leaving
That’s when I definitely knew
/
But if you’re trying to break my heart, your plan is flawed from the start
You can’t break my heart, it’s liquid, it melted when I met you
And as you turn around to leave, don’t turn back to me
/
Don’t turn around and see if I’m crying, I’m not crying
I’m not crying, it’s just been raining on my face
And if you think you see some tear tracks down my cheeks, please,
Please don’t tell my mates
I’m not crying, no, I’m not crying
And if I am crying, it’s not because of you
It’s because I’m thinking about a friend of mine
Who you don’t know who is dying, that’s right, dying
() ()
These aren’t tears of sadness because you’re leaving me,
()
I’ve just been cutting onions
I’m making a lasagna, for one
Oh, I’m not crying, no!
There’s just a little bit of dust in my eye
That’s from the path that you made when you said your goodbye
I’m not weeping because you won’t be here to hold my hand
For your information there’s an inflammation in my tear gland
I’m not upset because you left me this way
My eyes are just a little sweaty today
They’ve been looking around, they’re like searching for you
They’ve been looking for you, even though I told them not to
() ()
These aren’t tears of sadness, they’re tears of joy
()
I’m just laughing
Ha ha ha-ha ha
Sitting at this table called love
Staring down at the irony of life
How come we’ve reached this fork in the road
And yet it cuts like a knife?
I’m not crying
I’m not crying
I’m not cry-y-y-y-y
y-y-y-y-ing
