Lyrics

V1: I don’t believe in using the words I love you For using such words only cheapens my heart And so instead I would rather just show you How the touch of your hand turns me so numb V2: I don’t believe in trying to control you For if you want me, it’s up to you to show me so I know I am one of many who know you So let’s not play games or make plans for unknown Chorus: Times in the future Let’s not define we’re together In time, in the future I don’t want to be her, I don’t want you as him V3: I don’t believe in using the words I hate you For using such words only proves there’s still care And so instead I would rather just ignore When things fall apart, how empty I feel V4: The problem it seems is that you want to own me If I felt the same, I would’ve make my case known You should know that you’re not my one and only So let’s not pretend or make plans for unknown Chorus: Times in the future Do we have to define we’re together? In time, in the future Why can’t we stay just the way that we are? V5: I don’t believe in using the words I love you For using such words leads to heartbreak and pain And so instead I would rather just hold you At my arm’s length Copyright 2016 R.
