“Words (alternate)”

Girl, don’t you know every time I see you smilin’
(It hurts so bad ’cause when I see you I start tryin’)
I’ve tried everything to stop, but there’s no denyin’
(That fallin’ in love with you, girl, is just like dyin’)

Oh, don’t walk away
How, how can I make you stay?
Don’t turn away

I can still hear you sayin’ those
Words that never were true
Just spoken to help
Nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide
’Til your playin’ was through

Girl, don’t you know we can work it out with talkin’?
(You won’t look around or slow down your walkin’)
I’ve given you everything with a kiss to seal it
(You had to get your kicks outta tryin’ to steal it)

Now I’m standing here
Strange, strange voices in my ears
I feel the tears

But all I can hear are those
Words that never were true
Spoken to help
Nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide
’Til your playin’ was through, ah

Now I’m standing here
Strange, strange voices in my ears

Nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide
’Til your playin’ was through

Words that never were true
Just spoken to help
Nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide
’Til your playin’ was through

Words that never were true
Just spoken to help
Nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide
’Til your playin’ was through
