Testo Say it anyway Mary Chapin Carpenter

Say it anyway

You don't have to tell somebody everything
Love is love, with or without a wedding ring
You don't have to lose yourself to feel alive
Two sides of a broken wing are fear and pride

A pile of cash won't buy you lasting happiness
Though some folks need a pile to feel okay, I guess
Time is what you make it, don't piss it all away
It goes without saying, but say it anyway

That bottle cost a fortune, don't waste a single drop
Some days we're all imposters, pretending that we're not
Ignorance is bliss, and all the world's a stage
Except if you're a woman of a certain age

Silver linings aren't just only in the clouds
A dog will have his day, more than one should be allowed
Better safe than sorry, be sure to look both ways
It goes without saying, but say it anyway

Our "someday soon" is finally here and now
At the end of the day, it is what it is anyhow
Never saying never isn't just an empty slogan
If times are always tough, tell me how the tough keep going

When it's time to take the measure of our days
The ones that shine will hold hands with the ones that fade
I think we're getting closer to it every day
It goes without saying, but say it anyway

Holding tight to anything cuts both ways
The storms of life will always toss us on their waves
Wherever there's a lighthouse, there's a light that saves
It goes without saying, but say it anyway
Say it anyway
