What shall i say
When our neighbours want us to come to tea?
They don't know you're not with me
What shall i say?

What shall i say
When the phone rings and someone asks for you
They don't know i ask for you too
What shall i say?

How can i hide the tears inside
How can i face the crowd?
I can,make lips of mine be still
But my heart sighs too loud

I could explain that
You're only gone for a walk to shop
But after the week is up
What shall i say?
