How do you cool your lips, after a summer's kiss?
How do you rid the sweat, after the body's bliss?
How do you turn your eyes, from the romantic glare?
How do you block the sound
Of a voice you'd know anywhere?

Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual good-byes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face, told me
Maybe, you might have some advice to give
How to be insensitive, insensitive ooh, insensitive

How do you numb your skin, after the warmest touch?
How do you slow your blood, after the body rush?
How do you free your soul, after you've found a friend?
How do you teach your heart
It's a crime to fall in love again?

Oh, you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch
I fell too fast I feel too much
I thought that you might have some advice to give,
How to be insensitive

Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual good-byes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face, told me
Maybe, you might have some advice to give
How to be insensitive, insensitive ooh, insensitive

    General Comment:I love this song because it makes me think of a guy I really like. He drives me home every night. And we used to date but were just friends now. But I still like him.

    General Comment:im a guy and its written by jann, who is a girl of course, so the genders are different but the emotion is transgender and applies to anyone who is on the receiving end of an unwanted breakup.

    in short, these are the questions that my heart asks these days as i try to live without jenny. how do you free your soul after you've found your best friend?

    General Comment:Omg. This has been my song for the past few days. My boyfriend and i just broke up. and i know EXACTLY what this song is talking about. I seriously cry everytime i hear it. Especially cuz its summer right now.."how do you cool your lips...after a summer's kiss".

    This song is about a girl who was in a relationship with a guy...and slowly he started changing...until finally he ended it, and she's basically saying "i should of known, all the signs were there. Now im hurting inside, i wish you could show me how to not feel" its beautiful. i love this song, but its so sad.

    General Comment:i think it's about the fact that the guys shows no feelings towards her thus she have to broke it off since she can't stand being in that kind of a relationship...but she still loves the guy...

    General Comment:This is the ultimate breakup song. I've been in that place so many times. Reminds me of all of my exes and brings tears to my eyes. I still love this song some much though.

    General Comment:This song is actually about a girl who is still madly in love with a guy who broke her heart, and how he did it. And now she cannot keep him off her mind.
