Verso 1

We must look like
A couple of strangers
Sitting in a quiet room
You’ve been studying
The patterns on the carpet
I’ve been studying you

Verso 2

You kept building higher walls
I kept busting through
We’ve been on
This same road together
But somehow got a different view

Coro 1

I thought I was telling you I loved you
I thought I could make it up with words
I was trying so hard to reach you
But that’s not what you heard

Verso 3

I must sound like a broken old record
Needle stuck in the groove
Saying the same things over and over
Trying to get a message through

Verso 4

Damn these words I’ve always trusted
Wound up hurting you
It’s only in the aftermath
We see the damage they can do

Coro 1

I thought I was telling you I loved you
I thought I could make it up with words
I was trying so hard to reach you
But that’s not what you heard

Coro 2

Now I’m feeling every mile between us
And I wonder if I’ll ever learn
That it doesn’t matter how I mean it
If that’s not what you heard

Coro 1

I thought I was telling you I loved you
I thought I could make it up with words
I was trying so hard to reach you
But that’s not what you heard

Coro 2

Now I’m feeling every mile between us
I wonder if I’ll ever learn
That it doesn’t matter how I mean it
If that’s not what you heard

Repetir

No it doesn't matter how I mean it
If that's not what you heard
