i was growing younger day by day
there was love and it was all arranged
and I held you with the wandering eye
now I know the man I shoulda known
now I feel the love I should've shown
and I pull you in but you push me out
and I know you don't love me so
but please say it once before I go
i know that you can feel me
tell me that you don't love me
but say it one more time
i'm going darling, i'll step lightly
live on as if you still love me
just say it one more time
even if it's a lie, even if it's a lie
colors in the shirts you used to wear
the way that you would fix your brown hair
but I'll turn the lights down and leave
all the ways that I could say it now
you're the man to push away my doubt
but it's too late and were too young to know
and I know you don't love me so
but please say it once before I go
i know that you can feel me
tell me that you don't love me
but say it one more time
i'm going darling, i'll step lightly
live on as if you still love me
just say it one more time
even if it's a lie, even if it's a lie
