Something to Say
Music: Colin Bates, words: Brian Booth, copyright 2005
LYRICS
So we got it wrong
So we went off-song
Stop - look around you
Isn’t it better this way?
And please don’t call me
Now we’ve called it a day
Find the time to feel
Find the time to heal
Stop - hold yourself tighter
Put those memories away
But please don’t call me
Now we’ve called it a day
Down, deep and down
You know I’m right and
Down, deep and down
We’re both of us frightened
It wasn’t easy to let go
It wasn’t easy to say ‘no’
Stop - make a new start now
Everything’s going your way
And please don’t call me
Now we’ve called it a day
Look inside, ride the pain
Look inside, break the chain
Stop - turn up the lights now
Throw those mad dreams away
And one day I’ll call you
When there’s something to say
