Talking Heads - I Wish You Wouldn't Say That Lyrics

Talking Heads Lyrics

"I Wish You Wouldn't Say That"

I wish you wouldn't say that
I thought I'd have to come right over
I thought I made it clear enough
I guess I'll have to make it clearer

Say something to change my mind
Bring me back the way I used to be
If it takes forever, that's all right
Say the words that I've been trying to hear

I wish you didn't tell her
I thought I'd have to come right over
I thought I'd have to make it clearer
Now, Jimmy's coming over

There are places that I won't forget
And I guess I'm never going back
Guess it's information that I lack
I've told lies without a hint or regret

I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that

I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
