What Do You Say Songtext / Lyric

Stuck at a red light outside an adult book store /
His son said, "Daddy, what are all those X´s for" /
As the light turned green he changed the subject fast /
He started talkin´ ´bout football as they drove right past /

Chorus :
What do you say in a moment like this /
When you can´t find the words oh to tell it like it is /
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way /
Let´s get out of here oh what do you say /

Seventeen years old she was out with her friends /
They started drinkin´ at some party ´til she was three sheets to the wind /
Her momma always told her she could call no matter what /
She was cryin´ on the front steps when her mom showed up /

Chorus

Bridge : Sometimes you´ve got to listen to the silence /
And give yourself a little time to think /

Her every breath is weaker than the last /
And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past /
Her husband know´s she´s tired of holdin´ on/
She looks at him and says I want to go home /

What do you say in a moment like this /
When you can´t find the words to tell it like it is /
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way /
Oh what do you say /
