Edie Brickell New Bohemians He Said Lyrics

He Said Lyrics

Just before the lights went out



We sat up and talked about



All the things that we would be



I just wanted him to be with me







But he had a mind of his own



And he did not mind being alone



Left me there in our little world



Left me there like a little girl







He said don't get hung up



Hang ups will get you down



He said don't look back



Look up and then look around







That time I was feeling high



Like I never had to try



To kick myself up out of bed



Kick these worries out of my head







He said it's better this way, yeah



One day you'll understand



He said I'm leavin' today and



He let go of my hand







I know that I'll never see him again



I feel the same way that I saw him then



I know that when I get back on my feet



I will walk away from misery







What do you say when it's all been said



How do you feel when it's all been felt



Where do you go when it's all gone



And you don't care enough to carry on







Well, I say close your eyes



Look down deep inside



Someone is there for you



Someone who cares for you







Well, I know it's easier to say then do



Easier to look away than see it through



I know it's easier to think than feel



Easier to make it up than make it real







Oh it's hard to love



Oh it's hard not to love







Oh it's hard to love



Oh it's hard not to love







Oh now take me ther don't leave me here (x2)







Oh take me home and disappear







Oh oh oh no no no no no no
