How, how, how, how, how I can't believe what you said to me Last night when we were alone You threw your arms up Baby you gave up, you gave up I can't believe how you looked at me With your James Dean glossy eyes In your tight jeans with your long hair And your cigarette stained lies Could we fix you if you broke? And is your punch line just a joke? I'll never talk again Oh boy you've left me speechless You've left me speechless, so speechless And I'll never love again Oh boy you've left me speechless You've left me speechless, so speechless I can't believe how you slurred at me With your half wired broken jaw You popped my heart seams All my bubble dreams, bubble dreams I can't believe how you looked at me With your Johnnie Walker eyes He's gonna get you and after he's through There's gonna be no love left to rye And I know that it's complicated But I'm a loser in love So baby raise a glass to mend All the broken hearts Of all my wrecked up friends I'll never talk again Oh boy you've left me speechless You've left me speechless, so speechless I'll never love again Oh friend you've left me speechless You've left me speechless, so speechless How? Ha-ooh-wow? H-ow? Wow Ha-ooh-wow? H-ow? Wow And after all the drinks and bars that we've been to Would you give it all up? Could I give it all up for you? And after all the boys and the girls that we've been through Would you give it all up? Could you give it all up? If I promised boy to you That I'll never talk again And I'll never love again I'll never write a song Won't even sing along I'll never love again How, how, how so speechless You left me speechless, so speechless baby Will you ever talk again? Oh boy, why you so speechless? You've left me speechless, so speechless Some men may follow me But you choose "death and company" Why you so speechless? Oh oh oh
