I’m going down a dead end Road
And I just can’t do it anymore
So I’m taking a detour
Because I refuse to be ignored
I didn’t need Diamonds and Pearls
I’m not that kind of girl
Actions speak louder than words
I needed you there to show me you cared
Your heart was hard as stone
And I felt so alone
You stopped calling me on the phone
So it’s time I make it on my own
I didn’t need diamonds and pearls
I’m not that kind of girl Actions speak
Actions speak louder than words
I needed you there to show me you cared
I’m heading down the highway
Because I need to get away
I can’t stay
Because I refuse to live this way
Didn’t need diamonds and pearls
Yes Actions speak louder than words
