Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It was a freezing night and not a single cloud

I had a couple in me so I reached out

And then I heard your voice

Felt you all inside

I prayed for the distance to keep us in line

But there's things I've done you understand like no one else

There's pain I kept buried deep inside myself

I've been saying for forever "hey that's not me"

But me with you is who I think I'll always be

[Chorus]

Please say no

Please say no

Please say no

Please say no

Say anything you will

Except how you'd have me still

Say anything but no

And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go

[Verse 2]

It was the peak of summer and I thought I'd drowned

We couldn't get close

All the kids were around

But I could read you plain

You want a different life

Someday hell, you might ruin mine

I've lately come to wonder what it might feel like

If one last time we went and did this right

And someone no one possibly could know our names

Someone no one bothers to remember a face

[Chorus] Please say no Please say no Please say no Please say no, no, no, no, no Say anything you will Except how you'd have me still Say anything but no And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go [Bridge]

With you With you With you [Verse 3]

If all you're really hoping for is peace of mind Don't come to me with questions, you'll just waste your time Exactly what you're looking for is what you'll find All I see around me is a losing bind [Chorus] Please say no Please say no Please say no Please say no, no, no, no, no Say anything you will Except how you'd have me still Say anything but no And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go Say anything but no And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go
