Lyrics
We could beat around the bush again
Play make-believe or just pretend that
Everything is still okay
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
Oh
We could say "I do" then really don't
Say "I will" even though we know we won't
Stay in love this way for good
No matter what we do
We could just tell the world our wedding plans
Even though we know we're near the end
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 that me that we could
Say all the words we need to hear
"I love you" and "I love you, too, my dear"
We can take romance to heights unknown
But when we're done still feel all alone
We could find just the right words to say
That "I still love you but it's not the same"
We could take the time and clear our minds
Or we could say—or we could say goodbye
My darling, no more, no more pain, no more games
We could say goodbye
