I Don't Know How To Say...

(专辑： Rhythm And Romance - 1989)

I don't want you to stay around
While I play around
Turn the lights down
A little heart gets broken
I've let you down
A thousand times
I made you cry
I took you way beyond your patience

I didn't realize
How much compromise
And sacrifice
Two people have to make
Somewhere down the line
I hope we'll find
How to make time
Another chance for you and I

Baby, I know how to say I love you
When I'm trying not to hurt you
But you deserve a better guy
One who never made you cry
But I don't know how to say...

It's hurting time
That's no lie
But who am I
To take away your pride?
Why won't happiness
Ever rest?
Until it sets
On your love like the sun
I see that look in your eyes
And I wonder, why?
I must be blind

Baby, I know how to say I love you (To say I love you)
When I'm trying not to hurt you (Not to hurt you)
But you deserve a better guy
One who never made you cry
But I don't know how to say goodbye (Goodbye)
Goodbye...

I say I love you
When I'm trying not to hurt you
'Cause you deserve a better guy
One who never made you cry
But I don't know how to say goodbye

Parting as friends
Seems like we could be starting again
Not like we're end-ding our love, love, love...

Baby, I know how to say I love you (To say I love you)
When I'm trying not to hurt you
You deserve a better guy
One who never made you cry
But I don't know how to say goodbye, goodbye...

(I don't mean to hurt you)
So right now I'll say I love you
But you deserve a better guy
One who loves you more than I
One who'll never have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
Goodbye...

(How can I hurt you?)
And I don't know what to say
Looks like love has gone away
If you search it well, you'll find
One that loves you for all time
And I never wanna make you cry
Goodbye...
