The Go-Betweens - You can't say no forever lyrics

You can have hearing loss when you're

boyfriend says he's boss you're scared of

a new endeavour. What can be tempting

you? Who can be tempting you, you

look like a winter.

You can't say no forever You can't say

no forever. I've tried.

Run! if you have to run up to the mountain

air a writer's retreat maybe. Sheltered

and lonely there a fireplace and a rocking

chair you understand me.

You can't say no forever You can't say

no forever. I've tried.

You can't say no in December as the trees

lined the drive. I'm sure your family

remembers me by your side.

Night! as your clothes discard he asks

Was your day hard you can barely answer

"Yes my world's

Tumbling down

Stone by stone

To the ground"

Please take out the garbage.

You can't say no in December a piano

played by a child's hand drifts over the

verandah and I'm your man.

You can't say no forever. You can't say

no forever. You can't say no forever.

You can't say no forever.

I've tried and I know why.
