Words Lyrics

Two paper cups with cardboard sleeves

Sitting on the table getting cold

Neither one of us really wanted a drink

But we needed something to hold

I think you know what's coming by now

Cause I'm not good at hiding it

Know what I gotta say, just don't know how

And I'm not good at finding it

Do I say

What I need to say

Or do I tell you what I think you wanna hear

There's no good way

To make a heart break

And when it's over all this won't just disappear

I could tell you I'm sorry and that one day it won't hurt

Say it's me not you and I'm not what you deserve

But they're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

We talk about that trip we took upstate

When you told me all of your secrets

I carry them around and I feel the weight

Of seeing you at your weakest

I know you're gonna need to ask me why

But will it even make a difference

When we'll both be lying wide awake tonight

Why's the truth so inconvenient

Do I say

What I need to say

Or do I tell you what I think you wanna hear

There's no good way

To make a heart break

And when it's over all this won't just disappear

Cause they're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

You can keep 'em if you need 'em

Or throw 'em right back at me

Oh, you can twist the way I mean 'em

And blame me when I leave

And I could tell you I'm sorry and that one day it won't hurt

Say it's me not you and I'm not what you deserve

But they're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words

They're just words
