That's Not What I Said

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
