The Way You Look At Me - Mike + The Mechanics

Softly you told me what I already knew

No doubt in my mind, no doubt that it was true

The tenderness we had and the love that we used to share

Have long since disappeared if ever really there

Torn by the pleasure and the pain of loving you

I’m so confused I don’t know what to do

Just when I’m saying the need for you is gone

That’s when I realise the feeling’s just as strong

Chorus:

Something in the way you look at me

Something that you just can’t hide

Something in the way you look at me

Oh could never be denied

Nothing I can do to change it

Nothing I can even try

Something in the way you look at me

Darlin' I don’t know, I don’t know why

Too long it’s been easy to carry on this way

When the words that really hurt are the ones we don’t say

Hard to believe we had a love so strong

And I just can’t accept that it could go so wrong

Try to explain I don’t know if I can

What will it take to make you understand there’s

(chorus x2)

Something in the way you look at me

Something I just can’t explain

Something in the way you look at me

And I know I’ve got to try try again

Nothing I can do to change it

Nothing I can even try

Something in the way you look at me

I don’t know why
