Lyrics The Manhattan Transfer

The Manhattan Transfer

So You Say

So you say, it's a feeling I'll get over someday

So you say, so you say

I should try just to let the flame inside me die

I should try so you say

Against the wind with my face turned

To the empty side of loneliness midnight black and blue

So you say that the world will keep on turning

So you say, so you say

Tell me why, all the stars have lost their mystery now

Tell me why, tell me how

Where love has been, the taste of wine

Seems to linger on like distant perfume

And all of the memories carelessly left behind

Ghosts and lies they haunt me wherever I go

So you say that the pain of love will pass away

So you say, so you say

Before goodbye, I look for the fire

Behind your eyes but they're cold as ice

I hear in your voice the echo of love that's gone by

Now I cry, I'll love you for all of my life

So you say, it's a feeling I'll get over someday

So you say, so you say
