KIRSTY MACCOLL - He Never Mentioned Love lyrics
rate me(kirsty maccoll/jem finer)<br><br>I couldn't hear him when he called to me<br>I couldn't hear him at all you see<br>He was down the road away from me<br>How could I know his answer? <br>I couldn't hear him 'though he shouted hard<br>I couldn't hear him in my own backyard<br>The trains were rattling by above<br>He never mentioned love<br><br>He may have held my hand<br>When we were walking down the street<br>He talked about all kinds of things<br>But none of them were him and me<br>He looked into my eyes<br>Just as an airplane roared above<br>Said something about football<br>But he never mentioned love<br><br>I never heard him all the times he yelled<br>I never heard him if he tried to tell me<br>If my memory serves me well<br>He never mentioned love<br>I never hurt him 'though he says I did<br>I never hurt him but I die a bit<br>Each time he passes on the street<br>He never mentions love<br><br>I used to call him every night<br>And pray that he was home<br>I couldn't bear the feeling<br>I might have to live my life alone<br>But now my phone is off the hook<br>The word came from above<br>It told me I was wasting time<br>If he never mentioned love<br><br>I never heard him if he said he cared<br>I never heard him, I kept my claws bared<br>I never heard the things he says he said<br>He never mentioned he was scared<br>I never heard him when he asked of love<br>I never heard him as the skies above<br>Chucked buckets on the both of us<br>He never mentioned love<br><br>So if I seem hardhearted<br>I would like the court to note<br>He never mentioned love to me<br>In anything he wrote<br>And if I seem coldblooded<br>I should like to tell the judge<br>In all the time I knew this man<br>He never spoke of love<br>(or if he did)<br><br>I never heard him when he called to me<br>I never heard him at all you see<br>He was down the line away from me<br>He never mentioned l.u.v.<br>I never hurt him 'though he says I did<br>I never hurt him I just die a bit<br>Each time we meet upon the street<br>We never mention love
