Lyrics Say It Ain't So - John Wetton

I realized all the things that I'd taken for granted
Peace, there in your eyes, was everything I ever wanted my life to be
I've seen all the signs, I'd better believe what they're saying
Read every line, of your letter, I tell you I'm praying

Say it's not true, no, it couldn't be so
But the look in your eye's telling me otherwise
I stand tall, ready to fall
Somehow I know that I'm throwing it all away

Say it ain't so, say we can turn back the clock for one day
Say it ain't so,
What I'm hearing now, darling, I don't wanna know, oh no

Say it ain't so, say we can turn back the clock for one day
Say it ain't so,
What I'm hearing now, darling, I don't wanna know, oh no

Say it ain't so, far away that these memories lose all their meaning
I wanna know, that you'll stay, 'cause part of me won't stop believing
What can I do? Oh I can't let you go,
Please won't you see what you're doing to me?
If it's true, well, let me hear it from you
How can I life when I'm giving it all away

Say it ain't so, tell me it's all in my mind, I've been dreaming
Say it ain't so, I can't help what I'm feeling, I gotta know
Say it ain't so, I promise whatever you want, I'll be waiting
I can take all the pain but I can't let you go, oh no

I'll make it up to you
If I can find a way
Tell me what I have to do
I'm begging you to stay

Say it ain't so, I can't help what I'm feeling, I gotta know
Say it ain't so, say we can turn back the clock for one day
I can take all the pain but I can't let you go, oh no

I realized, all the things that I'd taken for granted
Peace, in your eyes, was everything I ever wanted
Say it ain't so
