Words

Words like: Hey, nice to meet you

Got us walking down the street to grab a drink

And words like: Tell me about your family

Got us falling, got us landing in a tree

Oh, and words took us all the way from kissing

In a park and lot to missing

Everything we used to be

Say the words and I'll be gone

Turn our perfect lights into another sad song

I won't keep you here

Keep holding on to what we were

Just say the words

Words, well they sure are confusing

Like when we started using them

Just bullets in a fight

Oh, and words like: Did you ever love me?

Well, they pushed you and they shoved me to the edge of goodbye

Just say the words and I'll be gone

Turn our perfect lights to another sad song

I won't keep you here

Keep holding on to what we were

Just say the words

Like bitter poison dripping off your tongue

Pour the thread and watch the story come undone

Just say the words and I'll be gone

Turn our perfect lights into another sad song

I won't keep you here

Keep holding on to what we were

Just say the words

Maybe words like: I'm sorry and I need you

Would have been enough to keep you from walking out

Is it too late to say 'em now?
