Don't (feat. Lucius) Lyrics

Sheryl Crow Don't (feat. Lucius)

Don't
Hold me and tell me that everything's gonna be fine
Don't
Tell me how my love for you will grow deeper in time

Here as I stand in the light of day
I move my lips but no one hears one word I say

So don't
Carry my suitcase and tell me how lovely I look
Don't
Dream of me ironing the sheets or learning to cook

Yesterday was a long time ago
If only I knew then what it is I now know

Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a contract
Made between a woman and a man

Don't
Tell me that dreams are devised for the young and for fools
Don't
Kiss me and tell me that we can rewrite all the rules

Here as I stand in the light of day
I move my lips but no one hears one word I say

Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a handshake
Made between a woman and a man

Don't
Whisper I love you and tell me it's all for the best
Don't
Tell me I'm tired, I'll feel better once I get some rest
