lyrics

(Go on and say it)
There’s no other way to say it
(Why don’t you say it?)
So maybe we shouldn’t say it
(Go on and say it)
What good would it do it say it?
(Why don’t you say it?)
When words just cannot explain it?

I was feeling so blue
After I talked to you
See, my words wouldn’t do
What I wanted them to
There was a distance between
What we said and what we mean
What was felt and what was seen
And it only grew

So we beat around it
And we danced around it
Looked for a word to sound it out
And then pretended we found it

(Go on and say it)
There’s no other way to say it
(Why don’t you say it?)
So maybe we shouldn’t say it
(Go on and say it)
What good would it do it say it?
(Why don’t you say it?)
When words just cannot explain it?

Are we scared what we spy
From the corner of our eye
Will dissolve like a sigh
If we shift our gaze?
Or do we not want to know
What’s real what’s for show?
Do we choose to let it go
And hope that it stays?

So don’t go and shout it
Don’t whisper about it
Don’t want to doubt it
If we can’t live without it

(Go on and say it)
There’s no other way to say it
(Why don’t you say it?)
So maybe we shouldn’t say it
(Go on and say it)
What good would it do it say it?
(Why don’t you say it?)
When words just cannot explain it?

So let’s just not say it
