What do you say
lyrics only From Terri Gould
Verse 1
Stuck at a red light outside an adult book store
His son said "Daddy, what are all those X's for"
As the light turns green he changed the subject fast
He started talkin' bout football as they drove right past
CHORUS
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words oh to tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get out of here oh what do you say
CHORUS ENDS
Verse 2
Seventeen years old she was out with some friends
They started drinkin' at some party 'til she was three sheets to the wind
Her momma always told her she could call no matter what
She was cryin' on the front steps when her mom showed up
"CHORUS"
- Bridge -
Sometimes you've got to listen to the silence
And give yourself a little time to think
- Bridge ends -
Verse 3
Her every breath is weaker than the last
And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past
Her husband knows she's tired of holdin' on
She looks at him and says "I want to go home"
partial chourus
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words to tell it like it is
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh what do you say
