Conversation - Atlanta Rhythm Section

Conversation, getting so hard to make

I try to communicate but I can’t get through

We are strangers but I remember when

You used to be my friend and my lover too

And I don’t really know how it happened

And I don’t really know what to say

I just wonder how we ever got this way

Conversation that’s what it’s all about

Why can’t we talk it out

And say what’s on our minds?

Situation, keep getting in the way

So much we need to say

But we’re running out of time

And I don’t really know how it happened

I have tried but I don’t understand

How we ever let it get so out of hand

It’s just like a dream you can’t remember

Even though you always wish you could

When it’s gone, it’s gone forever

When it’s gone, it’s gone for good

Conversation, things that we’ve done and said

Keep running though my head, like a sad echo

Desperation’s, gettin' the best of me

'Cause I can’t make you see and I can’t let go, no

And I don’t really know how it happened

And I don’t really know what to say

But I can’t bring myself to throw it all away
