How Insensitive

How insensitive

I must have seemed

When she told me

That she loved me

How unnerved and cold

I must have seemed

When she told me

So sincerely

Why she must have asked

Did I just turn

And stare in icy silence

What was I to say?

What can you say

When a love affair is over?

Why she must have asked

Did I just turn

And stare in icy silence

What was I to say?

What can you say

When a love affair is over?

So now she's gone away

And I'm alone

With a memory of her

Last look

Vague and drawn and sad

I see it still

All the heartbreak

In her last look

How she must have asked

Could I just turn

And stare in icy silence

What was I to do?

What can one do

When a love affair is over
