"Words" lyrics - SARA EVANS

SARA EVANS
"Words"
(David Hodges / Jimmy Robbins / Jake Scott)

Words, like "hey, nice to meet you"
Got us walking down the street to grab a drink
And words, like "Tell me 'bout your family"
Got us falling, got us landing in a tree
Oh and words, took us all the way from kissin'
In a park and lot to missin
Everything we used to be

[Chorus:]
Say the words and ill be gone
Turn our perfect lights into another sad song
I won't keep you here
Keep holding on to what we were
Just say the words

Words, well they sure are confusin'
Like when we started using them
Just bullets in a fight
Oh and words, like "Did you ever love me?"
Well they pushed you and they shoved me to the edge of goodbye

[Chorus:]
Just say the words and ill be gone
Turn our perfect lights to another sad song
I won't keep you here
Keep holding on to what we were
Just say the words

[Bridge:]
Like bitter poison drippin' off your tongue
Pour the thread and watch the story come undone

[Chorus:]
Just say the words and ill be gone
Turn our perfect lights to another sad song
I won't keep you here
Keep holding on to what we were
Just say the words

[Outro:]
Maybe words, like "I'm sorry and I need you"
Would have been enough to keep you from walking out
Is it too late to say 'em now?
