Marc Maynon - What Are We Really Saying? Lyrics

You say "Yes" to hurt me less
Though you'd rather you said "No"
I said that we don't have to go
Thinking that's what you wanted to hear...
What are we really saying
Amidst this indirection?
It isn't really clear
I pretend and you reply
With an act that rivals mine
And all of this pretending
Are we trying to cover our fear?
What are we really saying
Amidst this indirection?
It isn't really clear
Now it's time that I must go
Though I know it hurts you so
But you smile so lovingly
You would never let me know...
Okay, let's stay then in the park
I swear I'm telling you I want to!
No, I know that I don't have to...
But I tell you, I'm happy we do
What are we really saying
Amidst this indirection?
We're saying "I Love You"
