Actions Lyrics

by John Legend

[Intro]
Hey, yeah
La-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da, la-da

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e128528-john_legend~actions_lyrics.html ]
[Verse 1]
La-da-da-da-da, here I go again
With another love song that I wasted
Just another love run out of patience
She don't want it, she don't need it
Every other word coming from my pen
She throw back in my face, saying, "Where you been?"
I sound so poetic, but it feels like I let it slip away, slip away

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna show my love is strong
Make her feel it when I'm home
No fakin', no mistakin'
She can feel me when I'm gone

[Chorus]
That actions speak louder than, speak louder than, speak louder than love songs
The melodies, they carry on
Actions speak louder than, speak louder than, speak louder than love songs
I've been doing it all wrong

[Verse 2]
La-da-da-da-da, here we go again
Just a couple of friends with some benefits
She gave me all of her love, then I waste it
I wrote a new song, then erased it
Oh, every other thing that I've said before
Said she don't wanna hear about it anymore
I feel so creative, but it feels like there's nothing left to say to make you stay

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna show my love is strong
Make her feel it when I'm home
No fakin', no mistakin'
She can feel it when I'm gone

[Chorus]
That actions speak louder than, speak louder than, speak louder than love songs
The melodies, they carry on
Actions speak louder than, speak louder than, speak louder than love songs
I've been doing it all wrong

[Bridge]
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da away
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da, all day
She don't wanna hear, don't wanna hear a word I say, word I say
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da away
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da, all day
She don't wanna hear, don't wanna hear a word I say, word I say

[Chorus]
Actions speak louder than love songs, speak louder than love songs
The melodies, they carry on
Actions speak louder than love, woah, speak louder than love songs
I've been doing it all wrong
