Erasure
"How Can I Say"


Downtown I'm homeward bound
The city lights are looking bright tonight
No love lost between us
When I see you things are looking up

And though it's cold, inside I'm warm
Devoid of worries, no love is forlorn

How can I say what must remain unspoken
Don't want to spoil all that we said before
So many cry baby hearts to be broken
Don't want to join in with their crazy wars

You tease, I try to please
Though I know I'm not looking my best tonight
Hard pressed, you've had the rest
Of all the choices, time to make your mind up

And though you smile you're sad inside
But do not worry, 'cause I'll make it right

How can I say what must remain unspoken
Don't want to spoil all that we said before
So many cry baby hearts to be broken
Don't want to join in with their crazy wars

How can I say what must remain unspoken
Don't want to spoil all that we said before
So many cry baby hearts to be broken
