Lyrics How Can You Say That to Me - Edwin Mccain

How Can You Say That to Me

The air that you breathe it must be poison
And you’re dressed up in your best disguise
I don’t want to hear what you have to say
It’s there in your eyes when you look away
These beautiful words are turning into lies
How can you say that to me The light that still shines is just an illusion
Just a memory from a burned out star
Its promise has come from so far away
It’s fighting through sadness and years of decay
And it’s a wonder it ever made it this far
After all of those secrets you let me believe
There’s no rose petal air, there’s just thorns when I breathe
How can you say that
It’s not this silence that screams in my mind
Each day I feel like I’m falling behind
Living in shadows, still getting burned
When will I ever learn
After all those secrets you let me believe
There’s no rose petal air, there’s just thorns when I breathe
How can you say that to me
