I Just Don't Know What To Say - John Hiatt

You took my love

You took my trust

You turned 'em in

To a pile of rust

Stole my money

And you lied to me

You said we were shootin' it straight

Mutually

Now I think you want

Me to be kind

Bury the past

And ease your mind

But I’m not here

To make you pay

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

It makes me wonder

How long I been your fool

Though it hardly changes

What I feel for you

And that’s the thing

I don’t understand

It goes to show

What kind of fool I am

Covered in darkness

But I wanna see

What’s the matter with you, babe

What’s the matter with me

If I could believe

I’d hit my knees and pray

But baby, I just don’t know what to say

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

I know you’re shocked

At my loss for words

'Cause I can talk

The wings off a humming bird

I think too fast

But not fast enough for you

And everything you always wanted

To be brand new

Now my mind is tongue-tied

I got two left feet

I can’t dance outta here

I keep hittin' repeat

And it’s the same sad song

The jukebox plays

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

Baby, I just don’t know what to say

Oh, baby, I just don’t know what to say
