every light shines on you tonight
making a fool out of me
why won`t this love leave me alone
all of the people in this smoky room
crowded with faces i know
i feel them watching me watch you

chorus 

say the words
say the words
say the words
say the words so i can leave it`s over

your eyes are deeper
they are worthy of many words
but none i can conjure up will do for you
i shouldn`t see you
`cause i know my own motivation
it`s taking too long for this love
to leave me alone

chorus 

say the words
say the words
say the words
say the words so i can leave it`s over

bridge 
oh love you worry me
when you say you`ll wait forever
i have another life
we just cannot be together

chorus 

say the words
say the words
say the words
say the words say them for me
i need to hear you say it`s over
say the words
say the words
say the words so i can leave it`s over
