You don't say

Richard Thompson


I saw your old flame 
Walking down the street 
She's back in town again 
She's looking out for you 
She says you used her 
And you were indiscreet 
It really wounded her 
When you bid adieu 

Do you mean she still cares 
Do you mean she still cares 
Do you mean she still cares 
Oh you don't say 

Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares 
But you don't say (you don't say) 

She keeps half a ring 
She says you've kept the other 
She says you broke your word 
When you pursue another 
She says "You're getting love 
Mixed up with sympathy 
Young man, do your duty 
And come on back to me" 

Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares 
Oh you don't say (you don't say) 

Oh do you mean she still cares 
Do you mean she still cares 
Do you mean she still cares 
Oh you don't say 

She says her heart aches 
Like you had bought and sold her 
She took all her hopes 
And pinned them on your shoulder 
She sends you rosemary 
And by this gift you're given 
Remember love heals 
And old wrongs forgiven 

Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares (Do you mean she still cares) 
Do you mean she still cares 
Oh you don't say (you don't say) 

Do you mean she still cares 
Oh do you mean she still cares 
Do you mean she still cares 
Oh you don't say
