Talk Is Cheap
Kyle Thornton & The Company Lyrics

If you love me like you said you would
If your feelings are true and unconditional as you promised

It wouldn′t be misunderstood
I wouldn't have to second-guess your intentions and motives

Like you said you could
As you previously claimed to be capable of doing

Like you said you would
As you previously claimed you would do

If your lips could tell me more than words
If your actions corresponded with your words

Your love would never go unheard
Your affection and devotion towards me would be evident and indisputable

All they are is words
Your professed love is merely verbal and has no substance or proof

Just those simple words
Your statements, no matter how eloquent, lack sincerity or genuineness

Talk is cheap
Words do not have value or merit unless followed by corresponding actions

I shouldn't have to question your love for me
I should not have any doubts or insecurities about your affection and loyalty towards me

If your love don't mean a thing
If your emotions and feelings are empty or futile

Then my heart don't sing
Then I do not experience joy, passion, or contentment in our relationship

I never even cared
I did not give importance or relevance to superficial and materialistic aspects of you

About the diamonds and the clothes you wear
I did not judge you or value you based on your wealth or possessions

It aint ever fair
It never feels equitable, honest, or equitable between us

How you leave me there
How you abandon me emotionally or physically, without any explanation or justification

If i knew what hid behind those eyes
If I could discern or perceive the genuine emotions or thoughts behind your facade

You know better than to try to lie
You are aware that lying or deceiving me would not be beneficial or ethical

What a great disguise
You are adept at concealing your true self or intentions behind a facade or persona

Of what you feel inside
Of your genuine emotions, feelings, thoughts, or motives

You've been talkin the talk
You have been making grandiose or empty promises and declarations

You′ve been walkin the walk
You have been following through with your words and fulfilling your promises

You′ve been giving it but im not taking
You have been putting effort, affection, or attention into the relationship, but I am not reciprocating

I've been asking for more
I have been yearning or desiring more love, commitment, or intimacy from you

You′ve been closing the door
You have been shutting me out emotionally or physically, refusing to engage or communicate with me

On all the lovin we could be making
On all the potential for affection, passion, or intimacy we could share if you were willing

Always tears me apart
It always causes me emotional pain and distress

To watch you sell out your heart
To observe you betray your emotions, values, or desires for the sake of superficial or temporary gains

For less than what you've got
For something that is worth less than what you already possess or deserve
