I better rest my eyes, 'cause I'm growing weary of:
this point you've been trying to make.
So rather than imply:
why don't you just verbalize:
all the things that you're trying to say.

Thought this would turn out so well.
But I'm beginning to see that instead its trouble.
Into a pattern we fell.
Of prolonging the inevitable.

Why don't you come right out and say it.
Even if the words are probably going to hurt,
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say,
(Come right out and say it.)
What it is you're thinking,
though I'm thinking its not what I want to hear.

I better check my pride.
Because I was starting to think:
that I was on to something good.
But things started to slide.
And I sink here in retrospect:
understanding that I misunderstood.

Thought I could make up your mind.
You had a decision locked up so tight,
it couldn't be touched.
Thought you were being so kind.
By keeping your mouth sealed shut:
rather than just opening it up.

Why don't you come right out and say it.
Even if the words are probably going to hurt,
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say,
(Come right out and say it.)
What it is you're thinking,
though I'm thinking its not what I want to hear.

And I'll try to guess what goes on in your head.
Cause in your mind, I just might find,
all those things you left unsaid.
And I'll try to make you not regret anything.
But later on, after I'm gone,
you'll wish that you had listened to me.
(Had listened to me.)

Why don't you come right out and say it,
Even if the words are going to hurt we're better off this way.
Why don't you come right out and say,
(Come right out and say it.)
What I know you're thinking anyway.

Why don't you come right out and say it.
Even if the words are probably going to hurt,
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say,
(Come right out and say it.)
What it is you're thinking,
just what it is you're thinking?
Why don't you...
What it is you're thinking,
though I'm thinking its not what I want to hear.
