oh, i - i watch it all go down
closed eyes - pretend noone's around
so i - i chose to play the clown
or blow by and never make a sound
[chorus:]
any other guy would wanna take it outside
but i'd never even try - who wants to get their lights knocked out?
any other guy would wanna stir it up some,
but i'd rather say goodbye
turn 'round - say it to my face
no sound - everything's a race
lose ground - lost in your embrace
leave town - never leave a trace
[chorus]
hardly know what anything's for
just for show, i'm slamming the door
even so, my heart and my head are an open book
[chorus x2]
i'd rather say goodbye |
