I understand your pain
And I know that nothing
Ever stays the same
You're having problems dealing
With the changes of life
But if you can't confide in me
What's the use of being together

Say what you mean
And mean what you say
Gotta trust in me babe
There's no other way
If it's me that you want
You got to break down the walls
You build around yourself

I'm sick of pulling words
out of your mouth
Ooh I wish you would scream
I wish you would shout
Your having problems dealing
with your emotions
So you hide behind a silent wall

Say what you mean
And mean what you say
Gotta trust in me babe
There's no other way
If it's me that you want
You got to break down the walls
You build around yourself

You don't have to lie
To make me feel better
Lies can never keep us together
Just be real to yourself
And be real to me
We could live a fantasy

Say what you mean
And mean what you say
Gotta trust in me babe
There's no other way
If it's me that you want
You got to break down the walls
You build around yourself

Say what you mean darling
Say what you mean baby
Don't lie to me no
Mean what you say don't lie to me no
