How Insensitive — Sting & Police

Music by antonio carlos jobim, words by vinicius demoraes, translated by norman gimbel

How insensitive I must have seemed When she told me that she loved me How unnerved and cold I must have seemed When she told me so sincerely Why she must have asked Did i just turn and stare in icy silence What was i to say? What can you say When a love affair is over?

Why she must have asked Did i just turn and stare in icy silence What was i to say? What can you say When a love affair is over?

So now she's gone away And i'm alone With a memory of her last look Vague and drawn and sad I see it still All the heartbreak in her last look How she must have asked, Could i just turn and stare in icy silence What was i to do? What can one do When a love affair is over?
