Deeds Not WordsI've listened to all your stories Each one sadder than the last You've sure got a knack for talking I bet it's served you well in the past Don't they sound just like a novel Of a true and bonny lass Who despite her good intentions Got led down a wicked garden path So you just keep on talking to me I'll close my eyes so I can't see All the lies that you've been telling Maybe I'll keep buying what you're selling Sweet words hide the bitter poison They keep the truth out of sight Just because you talk sweet to me It doesn't make everything all right Chorus: But it's deeds not words Acts not intent You've told me so many sad stories I must be the king of lament But your cold ways speak louder Than any excuse I've ever heard Darlin' it's deeds that matter And not just empty words Deeds not words It just makes us tragic figures Out of some Thomas Hardy book I was looking for a true love But I wound up in a donnybrook So you just keep on floating around Stormy weather can't bring you down You're the queen of the wind and rain I give myself up to the hurricane Deeds not words Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
