Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How insensitive
I must have seemed
When he told me that he loved me
How unmoved and cold
I must have seemed
When he told me so sincerely
Why, he must have asked
Did I just turn and stare in icy silence?
[Refrain]
What was I to say?
What can you say, when a love affair is over?
[Verse 2]
Now, he's gone away
And I'm alone with the memory of his last look
Vague and drawn and sad
I see it still
All his heartbreak in that last look
Why, he must have asked
Did I just turn and stare in icy silence?
[Refrain]
What was I to do?
What can one do when a love affair is over?
Over
