[Chorus 1]
What can I say
After saying it's over
To ease the pain
You're holding inside
Where are the words
That won't sound hollow
Maybe the last one
Should just be goodbye
[Chorus]
I can't say how this hurts me
'Cause I know it hurts you more
I can't say I still love you
When it's me who's leaving
If I stayed any longer
My tears would betray
Everything I can't say
[Verse 2]
Please, don't believe
I'm cold and heartless
Don't ever think
Our love was a lie
Maybe someday
In some quiet moment
You'll realize how I felt
Then you'll know why
[Chorus: Maureen McCormick with Valerie Carter]
I can't say how this hurts me
'Cause I know it hurts you more
I can't say I still love you
When it's me who's leaving
If I stayed any longer
My tears would betray
Everything I can't say
[Outro: Maureen McCormick with Valerie Carter]
Everything I can't say
