Words That We Couldn't Say - Steve Conte

We couldn’t say them

So now we just pray them

Words that we couldn’t say

Funny, ain’t it?

Games people play

Scratch it, paint it, one and the same

We couldn’t find them

So we tried to hide them

Words that we couldn’t say

It hurts, don’t it?

Fools on parade

Taint it, own it, chase it away

We couldn’t make them

So we had to break them

Words that we couldn’t say

Sometimes, baby, we make mistakes

Dark and hazy, prices we pay

I sit here on my shelf

Just talkin' to myself

Words that we couldn’t say

Someday, maybe, we’ll make it right

Until that day

Long endless nights

We couldn’t say them,

So now we just pray them

Words that we couldn’t say

We couldn’t say them

So now we just pray them

Words that we couldn’t say

Someday, maybe, we’ll make it right

Until that day

Long endless nights

We couldn’t say them

So now we just pray them

Words that we couldn’t say
