Put a dress for you to see
And I'll turn the other way
While the rain keeps falling
But the tears will fall and the wind will blow
To understand the debt that I owe
So I'll tell you I don't love you
And I'll tell you I don't care
And I'll tell you I don't need you
And I hope you're not standing there
And I'll tell you all those things
And I'll make 'em sound sincere
All the good books tell me
Pick yourself off the ground boy
I look at them and wonder
How it is to love someone
Who's not in love with you
So I'll tell you that I love you
And I'll tell you that I care
And I'll tell you that I need you
And I hope you're standing there
And I'll say all those things
And I'll make 'em sound sincere
So I'll tell you that I love you
And I'll tell you that I care
And I'll tell you that I need you
And I hope you're standing there
And I'll say all those things
And I'll know that they're sincere
