Say No More

Say no more I think you'll never understand I have refused the same demand All my life! Say no more In my book there can be no blame When you pretend I have no shame You're half right! All along You kept trying to pin me down Turn me into your house clown … If I don't fit the bill … All the same I loved you then I love you still! Chorus: Want to know the truth? I caught a nasty bug And when it got a hold of me I could not shake it free! A lasting blue note Has been haunting me! It's like an old mistress Forever chasing me … But say no more I may not be an easy man But the way you played your hand I couldn't stand! It's too bad There is much more we could have done! But now those days are dead and gone Nothing lasts! All along You made me feel this useless guilt Can you look back on what we built? I wonder what you saw in me … Tell me was it real? Was it love? You tell me … Chorus And though you think of it As the cause of my fall! Never mind, I'm blessed … I'm here … at all!
