Let it roll of your back
And let it slip off your tongue
Before you lose your nerve
And end up right back where you started from.
Are you just waiting for the right time?
Are you holding off until you see a sign
To say something?
Or are you just bluffing?
I recognize the worry in your eyes,
Because Iâve been there a couple hundred times.
So take it from me,
speak up or youâll wish youâd done differently.
Let it roll of your back
And let it slip off your tongue
Before you lose your nerve
And end up right back where you started from
Because when itâs over, then itâs done.
And, boy, to tell you the truth,
If you put your foot in your mouth,
Youâd still be better off than kicking yourself.
Itâs obvious that youâre conflicted.
To carry on or just to nix it?
Should you stay the course or just walk out that door?
If I were you, I would be on my way.
The rest of your life could start today.
If not now, then when?
If not now, when?
Let it roll of your back
And let it slip off your tongue
Before you lose your nerve
And end up right back where you started from
Because when itâs over, then itâs done.
And, boy, to tell you the truth,
If you put your foot in your mouth,
Youâd still be better off than kicking yourself.
So tell me what youâll say,
when you finally come face to face,
when there ainât no turning back,
because this is your last chance.
Letâs hear it.
âIâm through trying to hold onto this,
because you seem to be over it.
So kiss these almond eyes goodbye,
because this is the last time youâll see them cry.â
