DON’T SAY THAT

Don’t say that, don’t, don’t say that!
When I had the time to be kind I was
When I didn’t, I wasn’t
Don’t say that, don’t, don’t say that!
The Golden Rule is fine by me
If you would just apply it
Don’t say that, don’t, don’t say that!

It’s so clear that I’m the better man
When I take a peak at me from where you stand
But there’s one thing that I’m still longing for
When I walk down the street or knock upon your door
Show me who you admire with a burning desire
Use an organ and choir, take it higher and higher
You’re dancing with angels, the voices of angels
You’re dancing with angels, the voices of angels

Hey, wait a minute! I’m not religious!
I suppose there once was a time I got down on my knees and prayed
Don’t say that, don’t, don’t say that!
As I recall I thanked God I didn’t have to go to church that day
Don’t say that, don’t, don’t say that!

I admit I never saw the light
Till Kathy took me walking in the pale moonlight
Behind the church the heavens did part
With me and Kathy kissing in the dark
Standing at heaven’s gate there was no time to wait
Call it luck, call it fate, I will always love Kate
You’re dancing with angels, the voices of angels
You’re dancing with angels, the voices of angels

A Song Can Tell A Story

When words leave off, music begins.

DON’T SAY THAT
