You Say...I Say...

by Eibutsina   Jan 28, 2005


You say I am priority but you can’t seem to call
Sometimes I wonder why you bother saying anything at all
You say how much you care but it’s something you don’t show
With out some indication how am I really supposed to know?
You say nothing has changed but that is something I don’t see
I’m your woman and can tell the difference in the way you look at me
You say it’ll all be alright but I can’t believe
I’m starting to get the feeling perhaps it’s simply best for me to leave.
You say we are meant to be but something is missing from your eyes
Are you trying to ignore me or can you not hear my cries
You say we’ll be always, if only we could truly last forever
Cause nothing makes me smile more than you and I together.

I say I’ll always be there and mean it with all my heart
I’ve done everything in my power to keep us falling apart
I say all that I ever wanted was just to be with you
You mean the world to me and there is nothing I would not do.
I say that regardless for you I will always care
With a compassion and tenderness to which none can compare
I say to you I am true and you are my only one
So much gratitude for you & the person you’ve helped me become.
I say I am in love with you and with each word I say
Have fallen deeper and more in love with you each day
I say lets share our lives but can you do that for me
How can I do all these things if you won’t let it be?

I say I need answers I can’t live this way
You say something out of whack, change the subject straight away
I say what is your problem lets try and communicate?
You say baby girl and brush it off, we’ll discuss another date.
I say I need commitment, I too have need to met
You say sweet nothings, again I’m yours, immediately forget
I say stop messing with my head tell me how you feel
Now that I know how you feel I wish it wasn’t real…
