[Verse 1]
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?

[Verse 2]
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?

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
I could explain
That you're gone for only a walk to shop
But after the week is up
What shall I say?
