Lyrics Joe Jackson – So You Say

So you say
And I agree
You’re a prize, but not for me
There’ll be no more lies now

I’m a fool
You’re a sage
Yes I’ll try to act my age
This is no surprise now
So you say

And I thought I knew what went on in my heart
Till you taught me I would never have been smart
Enough to leave you

Tell me once
Not again
Take a breath and count to ten
Time to say goodbye now
So you say

And I thought I knew what went on in my mind
Till you brought me to my senses I was blind
Enough to love you

So you say
And it’s true
I’m not so bad, but not for you
It’ll all be fine now
So you say

Tell me once
Not again
Take a breath and count to ten
Time to say goodbye now
