Be my mirror show me what I can change
Don't go, I know that you know
Don't let me down softly
Well, this all happened on a sunny day
You still couldn't see it
When it was just a half an inch away
Staring you right in the face saying
Why can't you just say what you mean
Why can't you say what you mean, baby
Shuffling sideways
There's no way to get home
You're so slippery, frozen, ice cold, alone
Now I see that you're expression has changed
Are you wishing you saved my place
You're standing on the ocean floor
Wondering what you could have said before
But why can't you just say what you mean
Why can't you say what you mean, baby
Well I've been working too many hours
Only for your loose change
The place is messy, complicated
And it only gets you back out
And I want out
Why can't you just say what you mean
Why can't you say what you mean
Why can't you say what you mean, baby
