You Love Me

All the things you wrote about
In your secret book of doubt
Let me hear you reading how you love me

What it was you were thinking of
When we were making love
Am I supposed to forgive you 'cause you love me?

Whatever you did won't be a big surprise
After a time I just shut my eyes

Most lies I did allow
But baby you must level now
Don't cheat by repeating how you love me

Cause I'm tired of pretending to
Be blind to people who
Look down and blanch when you say you love me

Be a relief to break down and cry
Restart that clock that got stopped inside

That word laying in your mouth
It can't ever hurt me now
So let me hear you spit it out - you love me
