Earl Thomas Conley: "Silent Treatment" Lyrics

You proved to me that I don't need

To be all by myself to feel alone,

But lately conversation only comes

When someone's calling on the phone,

Oh, but I'm not asking questions

Afraid that I might find out

What's really wrong

You give me that silent treatment

I can take it or leave

I'm getting that silent treatment

And it's working on me

Oh, but leaving off all the changes

I remember back when our love

It didn't hurt

Like when I'd wake up close beside you,

And you'd just lay there begging me

Stay home from work,

Now you don't like to talk about it

But lately we've been missing

More than words

I'm getting that silent treatment

I can take it or leave

You give me that silent treatment

And it's working on me

On me, on me, you got it working

Working on me
