The last thing I recall
was a question in my head
Some things we said
don't make any sense
I can make myself real small,
pretend I'm somewhere else
Leave you for a moment,
but there's no escape from myself
I wake up with sunlight in my eyes
And finally as the sleep
clears from my mind
And once again I realize
You still got nothing left to say
Except fall back on 'I love you'
Just 'cause you say,
just 'cause you say
There's too much water
on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away
Just 'cause you say,
just 'cause you say
You love me,
that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away
And we should walk away
I can ask you, 'How's your day'
I can sit with practiced warmth
Then we'll lie down again
in this bed of thorns
And we cross paths
like ghosts in the hallway
This beauty that I don't see,
the beauty in before me
An example of a flower that's faded
We're crazy to use phrases like
'I love you'
Just 'cause you say,
just 'cause you say
There's too much water
on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away
Just 'cause you say,
just 'cause you say
You love me,
that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away
And we should walk away
And we should walk away
