something to say lyrics

How's it goin?
It's been a while.
It's nice to see you.
Where have you been for so long?
I thought you were gone.
You know my life would bore you,
you mind if i pull you along?

We could talk about the weather for a minute or two.
Then we'll get tired of that
and I will ask "what are you doin tomorrow?
You mind if I call you?"

Our conversation goes on;
things are movin along
until my small talk is gone.
How bout the headlines today?
I turn a little bit more
I'm lookin straight at the door.
It's gettin awkward and I'm feelin
I need somethin to say

I'm in deep when I'm out of words.
Something to say,
to get me out when a pause occurs
I know that anything is better than
a silence I cannot make go away
I need something to say.

Life can take you to places
where you have never been before,
like when a friendship turns into something more.
So unexpectedly you never see it comin.
I'll admit the slightest bit of what I'm feeling
cause I've been known for being somewhat forward.
Just one word and my hearts runnin.

Suddenly we embrace,
tears are washing your face.
I can never replace another lover this way.
No one is sayin a word.
I kinda feel like I should.
You know that I didn't plan for this.
I need something to say.

I'm in deep when I'm out of words
something to say
to get me out when a pause occurs
oh I know that anything is better than
a tension like the clash of night and day
I need something to say.

And when I finally find the words
a stroke of genius has occured
just a moment too late, too late.

I know that anything is better than
a silence I cannot make go away.
I need something to say.
Something to say,
to get me out when a pause occurs.
I know that anything is better than
a tension like the clash of night and day
I need something to say.
