“When The Words Run Out” - Duet with Camille Cortez

Michael P. Lemon (c) 

 

Spoken Intro:  

I don’t understand.  Why won’t you just talk to me?  [Michael]

Because, ….there’s nothing left to say  [CC]

 

Verse:

[Michael]

I don’t mean to call you out 

I just want to call you up

I just need to talk to you

So please don’t hang up

 

[CC]

You ask me to hear you out

You beg me not to close the door 

Just save your breath

I’ve heard it all before

 

Pre Chorus:

Doesn’t matter who was right or wrong [CC]

The pain goes on and on…. [Michael]

 

Chorus:  [Both]

There comes a time

When second chances go away

You know inside

This goodbye is here to stay

This is the silence

That I’ve heard about

This is the feeling

When all the words run out

When the words run out….

 

Verse:

[Michael]

I don’t want to leave this way

I need to apologize

Those words I said 

Again, I made you cry

 

[CC]

Some things you can’t take back

Some battles can’t be won

This bed you’ve made for us

Is now made for one

 

Pre Chorus:

Your jealousy and pride inside [CC]

Won’t keep me warm tonight….[Michael]

 

Repeat Chorus

 

Verse:

I think it’s time you gave me up  [CC]

Think I’ll just give you time  [Michael]

But we know down deep inside  [Both]

This is our last goodbye  [Both]
