I'd better rest my eyes
|
'Cause I'm growing weary of
|
This point you've been trying to make
|
So rather than imply
|
Why don't you just verbalize
|
All the things that you're trying to say
|
|
Thought this would turn out so well
|
But I'm beginning to see
|
That instead it's trouble
|
Into a pattern we fell
|
Of prolonging the inevitable
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say it?
|
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
|
I'd rather have the truth
|
Than something insincere
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)?
|
What it is you're thinking
|
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear
|
|
I better check my pride
|
Because I was starting to think
|
I was on to something good
|
But things started to slide
|
And I sit here in retrospect
|
And understanding that I misunderstood
|
Thought I could make up your mind
|
And then this decision locks up
|
So tight it couldn't be touched
|
Thought you were being so kind
|
But keeping your mouth sealed shut
|
Rather than just opening it up
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
And I tried
|
To guess what goes on in your head
|
'Cause in your mind
|
I just might find
|
All those things you left unsaid
|
And I'll try to maybe not regret anything
|
Later on after I'm gone
|
You'll wish that you
|
Had listened to me (listened to me)
|
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say it
|
Even if the words are gonna hurt
|
We're better off this way
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say come right out and say
|
What I know you're thinking anyway
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say it
|
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
|
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere
|
Why don't you
|
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)
|
What it is you're thinking
|
And just what it is you're thinking
|

Come Right Out And Say It
