Ernie Ashworth – Talk Back Trembling Lips Lyrics

[Chorus]
Talk back trembling lips
Shaky legs don’t just stand there

Don’t let her know that she’s getting through with you
Talk back trembling lips
Burning eyes don’t start crying
Heart don’t let her know that you’re breaking in two

Everyday our love’s a battle royal
Dear, it seems that fighting’s all we do
But if I let you know how much I love you
You’ll do things to me you shouldn’t do so

[Chorus]

Every time you up and hurt my feelings
I pretend it couldn’t matter less
I’m just hiding all of my emotions
Behind my broken heart I guess so

[Chorus]

Heart don’t let her know that you’re breaking in two
