- How Insensitive Lyrics / with translationsHow Insensitive
I must have seemed
When she told me that he loved me
How unmoved 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?
Now she's gone away
And I'm alone with the memory of her last look
Vague and drawn and sad
I see it still
All her heartbreak in that 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?
I must have seemed
When she told me that he loved me
How unmoved 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?
Now she's gone away
Vague and drawn and sad
I see it still
All her heartbreak in that 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?
