Say No More

Say no more

I think you'll never understand

I have refused the same demand

All my life !

Say no more

In my book there can be no blame

When you pretend I have no shame

You're half right !

All along

You kept trying to pin me down

Turn me into your house clown ...

If I don't fit the bill ...

All the same

I loved you then

I love you still !

Chorus:

Want to know the truth ?

I caught a nasty bug

And when it got ahold of me

I could not shake it free !

A lasting blue note

Has been haunting me !

It's like an old mistress

Forever chasing me ...

But say no more

I may not be an easy man

But the way you played your hand

I couldn't stand !

It's too bad

There is much more we could have done !

But now those days are dead and gone

Nothing lasts !

All along

You made me feel this useless guilt

Can you look back on what we built ?

I wonder what you saw in me ...

Tell me was it real ?

Was it love ?

You tell me ...

Chorus

And though you think of it

As the cause of my fall !

Never mind, I'm blessed ... I'm here ... at all !
