The Way You Say No

Someone, somewhere

Holds on to every little thing

And you are that one

Golden in every single way

But, how do you say no so well?

Just leave it on the shelf, oh well

A momentary lapse of judgement

But, how do you say no so well?

As close as I can get

Still further than the rest

The diamonds on your necklace

Match the crown around your head

And how could I forget

Anything you said?

It was you that set the precedent

My feelings couldn't match

But, how do you say no so well?

Just leave it on the shelf, oh well

A momentary lapse of reason

But, how do you say no so well?

Now that you've shared your opinion

And I can get over the notion

Of shade you've been throwing

Don't stop, give me just a little conversation

I can accept it

But I'll always question

How do you say no so well?

When everybody knows

That you're playing the field

There's magic in the way

You catch my ear

But, how do you say no so well?

And how do you say no so well?

When everybody knows

That you're playing the field

There's magic in the way

You catch my ear

So, how do you say no so well?

She said no, she said no
