You Know

Don't say your world
  lights up when I smile - 
we both know it's too late
	for talk like that

  don't speak about
	plans and schemes
	  and all those other
		silly things
  because you know -
	they're over

  don't seduce me
	with your bastard
	   lips
	and your tentative
	   fingertips
  because you know -
	I still want them

don't come to me
  with that look 
	in your eyes
	  all the while
  wrapping me
	in your innocent lies
because you know -
  I'd believe you
