Please Say No

The lyrics shown here are mostly right, but just slightly inaccurate. I listened to the song several times, and I referred to both the lyrics shown here and the lyrics in the lyric booklet included with the album (which was almost totally accurate, but actually wrong on a few minor things such as having "all you're looking for" in place of "all you're hoping for"). This is what I determined the lyrics to be:

It was a freezing night And not a single cloud I had a couple in me So I reached out And when I heard your voice Felt you all inside I prayed for the distance To keep us in line

But there's things I've done You understand like no one else There's pain I kept buried deep inside myself I've been saying for forever Hey, that's not me But me with you is who I think I'll always be

Please say no Please say no Please say no Please say no

Say anything you will Except how you'd have me still Say anything but no And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go

It was the peak of summer And I thought I'd drown We couldn't get close All the kids were around But I could read you plain You want a different life Someday, hell, you might ruin mine

I've lately come to wonder What it might feel like If one last time We went and did this right And somewhere no one possibly could know our names Somewhere no one bothers to remember a face

Please say no Please say no Please say no Please say no, no, no, no, no

Say anything you will Except how you'd have me still Say anything but no And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go

With you, with you, with you

If all you're really hoping for is peace of mind Don't come to me with questions You'll just waste your time Exactly what you're looking for Is what you'll find And all I see around me Is a losing fight

Please say no Please say no Please say no Please say no, no, no, no, no

Say anything you will Except how you'd have me still Say anything but no And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go

Say anything but no And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go
