(steve bogard/jeff stevens)



The neighbor next door just barely

Say good mornin'

The boys down at work didnt ask me

To stop for a beer

I guess they heard 'bout me and you

Nothin' spreads like real bad news

'cause the silence is loud and clear



Nobody knows what to say

They just stare at their shoes

And make up an excuse to turn and walk away

Nobody knows what to say

'cause you just don't up and lose

The love of a lifetime everyday

Since you took your love away

Nobody knows what to say



We were the ones everyone said would last forever

We had the kind of love people talked about

Ever since you said goodbye

They don't wanna see a grown man cry

So my world's awful quiet now



Nobody knows what to say

They just stare at their shoes

And make up an excuse to turn and walk away

Nobody knows what to say

'cause you just don't up and lose

The love of a lifetime everyday

Since you took your love away

Nobody knows what to say
