Where Have You Been? - Debbie Gibson

Something’s funny 'bout your touch lately

It’s like you’ve been touching someone else

And the sound of your voice,

Well something’s stopping you from being yourself

We’ve always been honest —

And painfully so —

So tell me though I don’t want to hear

I have to ask you

Where have you been?

'Cause I think I know the answer

And it’s not what I wanted to hear

Dear, where have you been?

I’ve been waiting up for you

I don’t want to accuse but

Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story

I don’t want to hear it but —

The truth —

Where have you been?

(Well) I know it’s easy to lose faith

We look simply for a change of pace

And I know my moods, they go up and down

But when you’re climbing walls, don’t I stick around?

You caught me

On some little white lies

It’s you who taught me

About silent goodbyes

I have to ask you

Where have you been?

'Cause I think I know the answer

And it’s isn’t what I wanted to hear

Dear, where have you been?

I’ve been waiting up for you

I don’t want to accuse but

Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story

I don’t want to hear it-

But the truth-

Where have you been?

A silent cry fills the room

I hear it no sooner than the words ring true

I knew it all along

Please erase this song

End this harsh reality

What did you do to me?

I have to ask you

Where have you been?

'Cause I think I know the answer

And it isn’t what I wanted to hear

No

I’ve been waiting up for you

I have to ask you

Where have you been?

I think I know the answer

It’s written all over your face

Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story

I don’t want to hear it —

But the truth —

Where have you been?
