you had the prettiest blue-green eyes I'd ever seen

and I got a kick out of the way they looked at me

like I was a two-headed creature from another planet

that thrilled and delighted you but

you couldn't understand it



(chorus)

don't tell my ears 'cause they're not listening

don't tell my heart it doesn't know what it's missing

don't tell my eyes I know they won't believe

that you're not in love with me



we were inseparable you followed me around

and I got used to you this new friend that I found

I pictured us together I pictured us apart

and I knew from that moment that you were capable

of breaking my heart



don't tell my ears 'cause they're not listening...



six months of being friends

was all that I could stand

so I mustered up the courage to hold your hand

you were bedazzled bewildered

I guess it was just too soon

and when I finally kissed you

you walked out of the room....sssh!



don't tell my ears 'cause they're not listening....



I know you love me just a minute

I wouldn't want you if you didn't

I've been patient and I've waited

come on come on just say it

you and me sitting in a tree

K-I-S-S-I-N-G

you're not in love with me
