Talk Back Trembling Lips

(John D. Loudermilk)

Ev'ryday our love's a battle royal
Dear it seems that fighting's all we do
But if I let you know how much I love you
Then you'll do things to me you shouldn't do.

Talk back trembling lips shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let her know she's gettin' through to you
Talk back trembling lips burning eyes don't start cryin'
Heart don't let her know that you're breaking in two.

Ev'rytime you up and hurt my feelings
I pretend it couldn't matter less
But I'm just hiding all of my emotions
Behind my broken heart I guess.

Talk back trembling lips shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let her know she's gettin' through to you
Talk back trembling lips burning eyes don't start cryin'
Heart don't let her know that you're breaking in two.

Heart don't let her know that you're breaking in two...
