As a Matter of Fact Lyrics

You speak so matter of fact

You speak so matter of fact when you say you know just what you want

Now, you're saying it's the healthier way

But I remember just the other day when I was all you wanted

But your eyes say more than enough for me

Your lips say times have gotten real rough

Your eyes say more than enough for me

But I don't forget when I'm in love, love, love

You speak so matter of fact

You change your mind

Could you change it back?

Because I still know just what I want

Yeah, I'm sure there's a healthier way

It worked before so it'll work today

Yeah, I still know just what you want

And your eyes say more than enough for me

They haven't changed too much in all these years

They're telling me how guarded, how scarred they are

But they're not telling me what I want to hear

It's killing me, killing me

You can speak plainly

Cause I could be patient

And I'd give you everything

Or at least I'd try

It's killing me, killing me

and it's so slowly

Can't forget what you told me

So matter of fact, said you weren't mine

Just some of the time

And I'm tired of trying
