The Blueskies - If I Don't Reply Lyrics

There was a time when you and I could gladly while away the hours doing whatever we liked
But our silences are clumsy now, they decomposed abruptly when you deemed our friendship not worth fighting for
Boy, when you burned this bridge, you raised the whole thing to the ground, so excuse me if I seem a little sour
You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees

We'd burned a track across the country in your three-door car, blackened by the cinders of our past
In your haste, you cut your tethers, headed into stormy weather with the sunroof on your vehicle open wide
So if I don't reply, I hope you'll think it justified. You know I don't have the stomach for suicide
You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees

You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees
Dream calmly the sweetest poison, and if I don't reply, I guess this is goodnight
You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees
You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees

You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees
You knelt down and begged for life, but I found it hard to believe you on your knees
