Lyrics
?And I Say?
Capers Simmons
VERSE I
Say you will, but you won?t
Say you did, but you don?t
Say you might?so you?ll think about it
Say you can, but you lied
So you can?t, but you tried
Save your pride, ?cause you can?t get around it
PRECHORUS I
And all I have to say to you
Is thanks for the lie, and can I have two?
?Cause I can?t get enough of you
It?s the sweetest-tasting heartbreak I ever knew
CHORUS
And I say: Fine! Well, that?s alright
I never knew that being true gave you such a very hard time
Right! Well, that?s just fine
If I'd've knew you?d break the rules I wouldn?t drew you such a fine line
Hey! Well, that?s okay
If I?d've knew you?d break it, too, what did I have a heart for anyway?
Oh! I love you so
That makes everything okay, and I say...
VERSE II
Say I?m strict, say I?m cruel
Say I?m thick, I?m a tool.
I?m with you, so I, too must be crazy.
Say you?re weak, say you?re loose
It ain?t me, that?s the truth
Say it?s you and you?re wrong and you?re sorry
If you're wrong, then I'm right
Save the day, lose the night
Hold on tight, I don't know where we'll end
If we make it okay
It was me all the way
But I'll say it was you, my friend
~ CHORUS ~
