What You Don't Do

  • Heavy words, little lies
    Telling everything but the truth, the truth
    Three little words over time overheard and overused, used
    No sweet nothing could ever be turned into something new
    No grand gesture could ever be made to measure you

    I know what I got and I know where we're going
    You don't need to show it, I already know it all
    It's what you don't do, it's what you don't say
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    It's what you don't do, the games you don't play
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof

    I've been saving up my time so I could spend it all on you, on you
    Oh, all I need is to see you smile, I've forgotten how to be blue, blue

    I know what I got and I know where we're going
    You don't need to show it, I already know it all
    It's what you don't do, it's what you don't say
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    It's what you don't do, the games you don't play
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    Don't tell the whole world, just wanna be your girl
    (It's what you don't do, it's what you don't do)

    The closer we get, oh
    The less we need to show

    I know what I got and I know where we're going
    You don't need to show it, I already know it all
    It's what you don't do, it's what you don't say
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    It's what you don't do, the games you don't play
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    Won't tell the whole world, just wanna be your girl
    (It's what you don't do) I know you love me, I don't need proof
    It's what you don't do, it's what you don't say
    (It's what you don't do, it's what you don't do)

    Oh, the closer we get, oh
    The less we need to show Writer/s: Matthew Hales, Samuel Dew, Sylvester Stewart
