Say it isn't so painful to tell me that you're dissatisfied
Last time I asked you I really got a lame excuse
I know that you lied

Now, wicked things can happen
You see 'em goin' down in war
But when you play in a quiet way that bites it even more

Tell me what you want, yeah, I'll do it, baby I promise right now

Who propped you up when you were stopped
Low motivation had you on the ground

I know your first reaction you slide away, hide away, goodbye
But if there's a doubt, baby, I can give out a thousand reasons why

You have to say it isn't so (It isn't so)
Now, say it isn't so, oh, no

Now, say it isn't so (It isn't so)
Oh, say it isn't so, oh, oh, no

We like to be the strangers at the party Two rebels in a shell
You like to move with the best of them You know we, we move so well

Don't need someone to lean on I know where there's an open door
But if I'm faced with being replaced I want you even more

So baby, say it isn't so (It isn't so)
Oh, say it isn't so, oh, oh, no

Now, say it isn't so (It isn't so)
Oh, say it isn't so, oh oh, yeah

(Say it, say it isn't so)
(Say it, say it isn't so)
(Say it, say it isn't so)
Why you wanna go, do you have to say you wanna go

Ooh, ooh baby, say it isn't (Say it isn't)
Say, say, say it isn't (Say it isn't) So (So say it isn't)

Why you have to say it isn't (Say it isn't) So
(Say it isn't) So (So say it isn't)

I know it's so hard for you (Say it isn't)
So hard (Say it isn't)

Don't say, baby (So, say it isn't)
There must be some other way (Say it isn't)
Don't have to (Say it isn't)

Some other way (So say it isn't)
Aah, you don't have to say
(Say it isn't) Ay-ay-ay-ay
(Say it isn't) oh you don't have to say (Some say it isn't)
Oh, you know I'm won't make you (Say it isn't)
