"A Few Words Too Many" lyrics

Wait a minute
What did you say?
Did I hear you say
There's no real reason left for you to stay?
Under your breath
I hear your soft voice break
"Can we still be friends?"
I hear you talking
But you're just not making sense

I'd been hoping for a happy ending
Now I know that there won't be any
Just a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid
Oh, I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
Start again
All over

A broken shadow falls across your face
As you hesitate
Trying to think of all the things you need to say
Bare faced the truth lies at my feet
As you turn away
Sometimes silence has a way of making peace

I'd been hoping for a happy ending
Now I know that there won't be any
Just a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid
Oh, I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
Start again
All over again

Staring at the ceiling
Wondering just what your feeling
Was it me?
Or was it you?
What's the difference if I knew?

Maybe I wouldn't feel so empty
If I hadn't heard a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid
Oh, I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
Start again
Start all over again

We could start again
We could start again
Round and round and round and round in my head

Wait a minute
What did you say?
Did I hear you say...?
