Actions Songtext

von John Legend

Hey yeah
La-da-da, da-da
La-la-da, da-da, da-da

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've been?"
I sound so poetic but it feels like I let it slip away, slip away

I wanna show my love is strong
Make her feel it when I'm home
No faking, no mistaking
She can feel me when I'm gone

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

La-da-da-da-da, here we go again
Just a couple of friends with some benefits
She gave me all of her love than I waste it
I wrote a new song, then erased it
Oh every other thing that I've said before
Said you 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

I wanna show my love is strong
Make her feel it when I'm home
No faking, no mistaking
She can feel me when I'm gone

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

La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da away (La-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da, all day
She don't wanna hear, don't wanna hear a word I say, a word I say
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da away (La-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da, all day
She don't wanna hear, don't wanna hear a word I say, a word I say

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
