That's not what I said but if that's what you heard

Then you didn't hear one single word

We're so far apart, something is missing

It makes it hard when no one is listening

I say black, you say white

I say day, you say night

We don't talk anymore without keeping score

I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head

If that's what you heard

That's not what I said

Not long ago, there was a time

We were so close that you read my mind

Now things that we say end up being hurtful

Lately it seems we go ‘round in circles

I say black, you say white

I say day, you say night

We don't talk anymore without keeping score

I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head

If that's what you heard

That's not what I said

Let's lay down our gloves, pay attention to love

It doesn't matter who's right

Or who's wrong

If we don't change baby it just keeps going on and on

I say black, you say white

I say day, you say night

We don't talk anymore without keeping score

I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head

If that's what you heard

That's not what I said
