Sheer Simplicity

Madonna-Don’t tell me

Don’t tell me to stop
Tell the rain not to drop
Tell the wind not to blow
’Cause you said so, mmm
Tell the sun not to shine
Not to get up this time, no, no
Let it fall by the way
But don’t leave me where I lay down

Tell me love isn’t true
It’s just something that we do
Tell me everything I’m not
But please don’t tell me to stop
But don’t ever tell me to stop
Tell the leaves not to turn
But don’t ever tell me I’ll learn, no, no
Take the black off a crow
But don’t tell me I have to go
Tell the bed not to lay
Like the open mouth of a grave, yeah
Not to stare up at me
Like a calf down on its knees
Please don’t
Please don’t
Please don’t tell me to stop

Don’t ever tell me to stop
Tell the bed not to lay
Like a open mouth of a grave, yeah
Not to stare up at me
Like a calf down on its knees
