Don't You Love Me Anymore

lyrics and music: ©1998 manuel de los rios

All my friends just look away...cause they don't know what to say...when I try to play it cool

See the word's all over town...you're about to put me down...it's my turn to play the fool

Though I swear that I'm OK...time to start a brand new day...and that's just what I'm gonna do

But these tears give me away...reveal what I will not say...that you found somebody new

-chorus-

Why you wanna break my heart...take the hope from my tomorrow

Throw my soul right out the door...don't you need me like before...don't you love me anymore

All the plans that we once made...when did they begin to fade...when did your heart start to go

I didn't see it in your eyes...didn't catch the tiny lies...one last thing I need to know

Is this golden wedding ring...just another passing fling...like last week's favorite song

And in your quiet simple vow...did forever mean for now...til something better comes along

-chorus-

Why you wanna break my heart...take the hope from my tomorrow

Throw my soul right out the door...don't you need me like before...don't you love me anymore

-instrumental solo-

And the kids they'll both be fine...It'll take a little time...I'll do my best to help them through

When they kneel down to pray...ask why mommas gone away...no I'll never lie for you

This life can be unkind...true love's what we must find...and just to wish won't make it so

Now I refuse to cry...and you don't want to try...and it's time for you to go

-final chorus-

You can take my broken heart...take the hope from my tomorrow

I'll know when you're out the door...you don't need me like before...you don't love me anymore

You can take my broken heart...take the hope from my tomorrow

I'll know when you're out the door...you don't need me like before...you don't love me anymore
