Say
Texas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walked along to the strand hotel
A bit confused to get overwhelmed
By waking up in a one night's bed
Except for someone just standing there
And now I get carried along
I hope they won't catch me
I swallow the pill
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
I can't believe I stayed out so long
It messed me up but I do get along
With everything I still feel love grown
I wouldn't have gone ??? if I had known
And now I get carried along
I hope they won't catch me
I swallow the pill
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me
Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way
Say it is't so
Say you'll never leave me




Tell me everything's okay
You know I meet you half-way

Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you're on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no
Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
What I am is what you want of me
Yeah, now that I'm not there
I took the tables away from you
It's turned and I don't care
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no
Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
I've said goodnight, try to sleep tight
Ah, just dream of me
Go, close your eyes 'cause I've closed mine
The sun will shine from time to time
Oh, when you dream of me, yeah
Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you

Met these guys at a convert they did at my local theatre while i worked there. I helped cook and serve them food in the day and then worked the show at night. I can say with all honesty that they are some of the most genuine, lovely people i have ever met in the industry ❤
