I Couldn’t Say It to Your Face Lyrics by Arthur Russell

Love is Overtaking Me

2008

I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I needed a place, so I walked in the door
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
It's my world, it's my song
Didn't ask you to sing along
In my arms, you girl
You won't be here to say I'm wrong
I couldn't say it to your face but I won't be around any more
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I needed some space, so I walked out the door
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I heard them say
Maybe some day I'd have to pay
I don't say one word
To let you know I'm going away
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
I needed a place, so I walked in the door
I couldn't say it to your face, but I won't be around any more
