words & music by Vonda Shepard

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
