Your Answer Shows On You

Do you remember when we said I do?
Told me that you needed me, more than I did you.
Swore you'd never leave me, alone and cold and blue.
Why try to hide it, you know that it is true.
Don't try to deny it, your answer shows on you.
Your answer shows on you.

Somehow I lost you
tell me what went wrong.
Our feelings were very deep,
but our love it wasn't strong.
I should have known right from the start
that it wouldn't last too long.
Why try to hide it, you know that it is true.
Don't try to deny it, your answer shows on you.
Your answer shows on you.

I know now it's over,
my love for you is gone.
You tore apart my heart too much
you treated me so wrong.
No matter what we said or did
we just couldn't get along.
Why try to hide it, you know that it is true.
Don't try to deny it, your answer shows on you.

Your answer shows on you.
Your answer shows on you.
Your answer shows on you.
