Just What to Say

I went through this door For no other reason That it wasn't open And sometimes I'm foolish enough to believe encouraging things But most times I'm cautiously less optimistic A face in the crowd I wish to be found I worry so often for those who escape I wonder out loud I sleep at odd hours And I write 'cause I never know just what to say My friends all believe me When I say I'm busy with pretty big things I cancel most plans I hurt someone's feelings I feel like I'm starting And just when I'm starting, I'm starting to stray And every day, I take a white page And try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say I try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say I've planted some clues That I hope you find easily Things that I find hard to speak clear and true I think there's a part of you Hoping I'm hoping you feel like I do And maybe you're listening somewhere you like to be Where you let everything heavy just go Oh, I'd like to be there How I'd like to stay How I'd like to listen How I'd like to think I'd know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say I try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say Somebody, somebody blocks the door I know it was me for sure But somebody knows where I'm hidden away I try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say I try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say I try very hard to know just what to say Just what to say, just what to say
