Hard Questions

Please don’t ask me that
That’s a hard question
I’ve got pictures in my head
You don’t want to see
Remember that night
Out on Watson Road
You wore that linen dress
You wore it for me

Chorus:
Tell me now if you want me to leave
You’ve got my attention
You can say your piece
Say it once, then leave it alone
If you say the word
Tomorrow I’ll be gone

I don’t understand
Why I must say it
When you get right down to it
You’ve known all along
No news is good news
Let’s sit for a while
It’s always been this way
How can it be wrong

Chorus:
Tell me now if you want me to leave
You’ve got my attention
You can say your piece
Say it once, then leave it alone
If you say the word
Tomorrow I’ll be gone

No one will see us
Nobody will know
And if anyone asks you
Tell ’em it’s not true
You don’t say goodbye
If you never leave
The decision is yours
Whatcha going to do

Chorus:
Tell me now if you want me to leave
You’ve got my attention
You can say your piece
Say it once, then leave it alone
If you say the word
Tomorrow I’ll be gone
