Say the Word

Every day's an opportunity
To get it wrong in a fresh new way, girl
Really ramping up the lunacy
Twisting every single word you say, girl

Give it up, give it all away
Sell the cats and the television
You know it's never gonna work this way
I'll only ever sabotage the mission

Oh, if only I could
Change my ways then I would

Get out of bed on the winning side
Trade the problem for the right solution
Give the world what it's been denied
Be a man making contribution

Oh, if only I could
Change my ways then I would
See what I could be

Speak the truth, tell me what to do
Say the word, say the word
Give me a sign, write it in the sky
Say the word, say the word

Swaying on the precipice of reason
The lightest breeze 'n' I'll be falling, falling

So hold me tight
Our arms are all we have tonight
Forget today
Just let it fade away

In the beginning was the wonderland where man and woman wandered hand in hand and all was good and right. Some angels fall and some are called to stand. They scant to stars above the sea and sand to light our darker nights.

The shallow smile of my distractions
Loses its crescent curl when you hold my hand
And all the while, your every action
Speaks to a deeper love that I can't explain

Speak the truth, tell me what to do
Say the word, say the word
Give me a sign, write it in the sky
Say the word, say the word

Swaying on the precipice of reason
The lightest breeze 'n' I'll be falling, falling

So hold me tight
Our arms are all we have tonight
Forget today
Just let it fade away

And when I'm a fool
Excuse my behaviour
Sweet lady and saviour

Don't give up on this prize-winning fool
Until I truly hurt
Say the word, say the word
Say the word, say the word
Say the word, say the word
