SAY
Improbable coincidence
Has brought about a tale
Beyond all expectation and hope
Must be the summer’s providence
Fulfilling fantasies
But all too soon the plot would be unveiled
Perception has been failing me
It ends quite unexpectedly
The scope is evident
And all but dead my fantasy
I wanna shout it from afar
Or I could whisper in your ear
Just tell you unequivocally
Although you don’t, I do still care
Come on and say it’s not too late
There’s always time, you know I’ll wait
Say you’ll give love a chance
Don’t let it die so soon
Come on and say you won’t deny
There’s more to it than meets the eye
Say you won’t let the rising sun set before noon
Get lost and found, must not be seen
Thrills in the heavy air
And I can hear the beats my heart is skipping
The darkness glows so bright it sheens
As if all time was one
No sooner than I feel the moment slipping
Perception has been failing me
It ends quite unexpectedly
The scope is evident
And all but dead my fantasy
I wanna shout it from afar
Or I could whisper in your ear
Just tell you unequivocally
Although you don’t, I do still care
Come on and say it’s not too late
There’s always time, you know I’ll wait
Say you’ll give love a chance
Don’t let it die so soon
Come on and say you won’t deny
There’s more to it than meets the eye
Say you won’t let the rising sun set before noon
(Say say, say say say)
Perception has been failing me
It ends quite unexpectedly
The scope is evident
And all but dead my fantasy
I wanna shout it from afar
Or I could whisper in your ear
Just tell you unequivocally
Although you don’t, I do still care
Come on and say it’s not too late
There’s always time, you know I’ll wait
Say you’ll give love a chance
Don’t let it die so soon
Come on and say you won’t deny
There’s more to it than meets the eye
Say you won’t let the rising sun set before noon
Oh, won’t you say it
You’re not going to let the sun set just yet
Oh, let me me hear you say it
Say say, say say say
Won’t you say it
You’re not going to let the sun set just yet
Let me hear you say it
Let me hear you say it
Say
You’re not going to let the sun set on our love just yet
Let the sun set on our love just yet, say
