REBA MCENTIRE LYRICS - What Do You Say

"What Do You Say"



Stuck at a red light outside an adult bookstore

His son said Daddy what are all those X's for

As the light turned green he changed the subject fast

Started talking about football as they drove right past



So what do you say in a moment like this

When you can't find the words to tell it like it is

Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way

Let's get out of here

Oh what do you say



Seventeen years old

She was out with her friends

They started drinking at some party

Till she was three sheets to the wind

Her momma always told her she could call no matter what

She was crying on the front steps

When her mom showed up



So what do you say in a moment like this

When you can't find the words to tell it like it is

Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way

Let's get out of here

Oh what do you say



Sometimes you gotta listen to the silence

And give yourself a little time to think



Her every breath is weaker than the last

And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past

Her husband knows she's tired of holding on

She looks at him and says I wanna go home



What do you say in a moment like this

When you can't find the words to tell it like it is

Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way

Oh what do you say



Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way

Oh what do you say

Ooo, what do you say
