The neighbor next door just barely say good mornin'
The boys down at work didn't ask me to stop for a beer
I guess they heard 'bout me and you
Nothin' spreads like real bad news
'Cause the silence is loud and clearNobody knows what to say, they just stare at their shoes
And make up an excuse to turn and walk away
Nobody knows what to say 'cause you just don't up and lose
The love of a lifetime, every day since you took your love away
Nobody knows what to sayWe were the ones everyone said would last forever
We had the kind of love people talked about
Ever since you said goodbye, they don't wanna see
A grown man cry so my world's awful quiet nowNobody knows what to say, they just stare at their shoes
And make up an excuse to turn and walk away
Nobody knows what to say 'cause you just don't up and lose
The love of a lifetime, every day since you took your love away
Nobody knows what to say, nobody knows what to say
Nobody knows what to say, nobody knows what to say
