I better rest my eyes because I am 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
I guess it turned out so well
But I'm beginning to see that instead it's 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 gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say it
What it is you're thinking
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear
I better check my pride
Because I was starting to think I was onto something good
But things started to slide and I'm thinking 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 gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say it
What it is you're thinking
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear
And now try to guess what goes on in your head
'Cause in your mind I just might find
All those things you left unsaid
And now try to make you not regret anything
And 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 gonna hurt we're better off this way
Why don't you come right out and say (Come right out and say)
What I know you're thinking anyway
Why don't you come right out and say it?
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I'd rather have the truth than something insincere.
Why don't you come right out and say it
What it is you're thinking?
Oh, just what is it you're thinking?
Why don't you?
What it is you're thinking
Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear
