Richard Marx - Nothin' Left To Say lyrics

Locked up tight but holdin' the key

Clock keeps tickin' like it's laughin' at me

I wonder

What spell I'm under

Days go by in a pulseless haze

Who's that person that's wearin' my face

Denyin'

What he's hidin'

I can't go on like this

I won't let myself miss the rest of my life

Chorus:

When something's come and gone

What good is holdin' on?

Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?

I part my lips to speak

But the words are out of reach

I guess that really means

There's nothin' left to say

I guess we could carry on livin' asleep

Who is the fool who could choose to just keep pretendin'

That this ain't endin'?

I wish you all that I wish for myself

To have that ache of emptiness behind us

And not still inside us

It's time to take that dare

There's still a world out there waitin' for me

Chorus:

When something's come and gone

What good is holdin' on?

Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?

I part my lips to speak

But the words are out of reach

I guess that really means

There's nothin' left to say

We did the best we could

Just like we thought we should

But sometimes you've got to just let go

Chorus:

When something's come and gone

What good is holdin' on?

Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?

I part my lips to speak

But the words are out of reach

I guess that really means

There's nothin' left to say

There's nothin' left to say

Nothin' left to say
