Lyric
All my memory is safely packedAnd my dreams are neatly folded awayI’ve got nothing to show that I came very closeTo a love that might have worked out okayAll the tables and chairsThey’re standing empty and bareAnd there isn’t any sign you were hereSo just walk through the door and try not to get too nearYou might look in my eyesAnd see all the pain and sadness deep insideDon’t look in my eyes‘Cause that’s where I keep the tears I can’t hideIf you just go, it’ll be alrightI know I’ll get through the nightAnd I’ll even smile as we say our goodbyesJust don’t look in my eyesAll our photographs are stored awayAnd our letters are being burned in the fireThere is nothing left here that will make me believeWe had nights of tender love and desireIf this seems to be gray, well, I’d like it that wayThere is nothing to remind me of youWhen you walk to the doorJust be sure whatever you doDon’t look in my eyesAnd see all the pains and sadness deep insideDon’t look in my eyes‘Cause that’s where I keep the tears I can’t hideIf you just go, it’ll be alrightI know I’ll make it through the nightAnd I’ll even smile as we say our goodbyesJust don’t look in my eyesDon’t look in my eyesAnd see all the pains and sadness deep insideDon’t look in my eyes‘Cause that’s where I keep the tears I can’t hideIf you just go, it’ll be alrightI know I’ll make it through the nightAnd I’ll even smile as we say our goodbyesJust don’t look in my eyesJust don’t look in my eyes
