At Lunch
@LUNCH - Gabrielle Aplin - Please don't say you love me (video and lyrics)─── 11:56 Tue, 19 Jan 2016

"Heavy words are hard to take. Under pressure precious things can break"

This bittersweet, Country-inspired number is Gabrielle Aplin's first single release of her own material on a major label.
It finds the song's protagonist admitting to her beau that she prefers taking relationships slowly.
"Fools rush in and I've been the fool before," Aplin sings on the bridge. "This time I'm gonna slow down, 'cause I think this could be more. The thing I'm looking for."
LYRICS
Summer comes, winter fades
Here we are just the same
Don't need pressure, don't need change
Let's not give the game away
There used to be an empty space
A photograph without a face
But with your presence, and your grace
Everything falls into place
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Heavy words are hard to take
Under pressure precious things can break
And how we feel is hard to fake
So let's not give the game away
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
And fools rush in
And I've been the fool before
This time I'm gonna slow it down
'Cause I think this could be more
The thing I'm looking for
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
