I try to explain But it didn't come out
In the way I hoped and you look confused
What I meant to say And what you took to mean
Are two very different things But it's not an excuse
So I take it back And I swallow the words
And I hope they don't come out In some unpleasant ways
So please don't ask What I was trying to say
'Cause I'd hate for it to come out In unpleasant ways
We talk over each other Or not at all
Our glances feel awkward And we couldn't feel worse]
Shall we carry on Or shall I put us out of our misery
But you look so hurt
So I take it back And I swallow the words
And I hope they don't come out In some unpleasant ways
So please don't ask Don't make me say
'Cause I'd hate for it to come out In unpleasant ways
I take it back And I swallow the words
It may come out In unpleasant ways
So please don't ask Don't make me say
It might come out In unpleasant ways
You stopped asking me
Let it go
(I take it back
And I swallow the words)
You stopped asking me
You let it go
(I take it back
And I swallow the words)
You stopped asking me
You've let it go
(I take it back
And I swallow the words)
You've stopped asking me
You've stopped asking me
You've stopped
