Say Good-bye - Howard Hewett

we could beat around the bush again

play make believe or just pretend

that every thing is still ok

when all we really have to do is say what it is

we both feel inside

and reveal the secrets we try to hide

we could live like this the rest of our lives

or we could say

or we could say goodbye

we could say i do but really don’t

say i will even though I know we won’t

stay in love, this way for good

no matter what we do we could

tell the world our wedding plans

even though we know it really ends

we could say without you I’d die

or we could say

or we could say

i don’t wanna go so don’t make this harder than it should

i don’t wanna know your reason

so just tell me that we could

say all the words we long to hear

i love you, and I love you too my dear

we could take romance to heights unknown

but when we’re done still be all alone

we could find just the right word s to say

that I still love you but it s not the same

we could take the time to clear our minds

or we could say

or we could say goodbye
