Conversation Is gettin' so hard to make I try to communicate But I can't get through We are strangers But I remember when You used to be my friend And my lover too And I don't really know how it happened And I don't really know what to say I just wonder how we ever got this way Conversation That's what it's all about Why can't we talk it out And say what's on our minds Situations Keep gettin' in the way So much we need to say But we're runnin' out of time And I don't really know how it happened I have tried But I don't understand How we ever let it get so out of hand When it's gone It's gone forever When it's gone It's gone for good Conversation Things that we've done and said Keep runnin' through my head Like a sad echo No Desperation It's gettin' the best of me I can't make you see And I can't let go No And I don't really know how it happened And I don't really know what to say But I can't bring myself To throw it all away
