How Insensitive

How insensitive I must have seemed

When she told me that she loved me

How unmoved and cold I must have seemed

When she told me so sincerely

Why, she must have asked, did I just turn

And stare in icy silence?

What was I to say? What can you say

When a love affair is over?

Now she's gone away and I'm alone

With the memory of her last look

Vague and drawn and sad, I see it still

All her heartbreak in that last look

How, she must have asked, could I just turn

And stare in icy silence?

What was I to do? What can one do

When a love affair is over?
