How Do You Tell Somebody No?

< Don't ask me! I have no idea! No idea how you tell someone, and no idea what I'm talking about in this song, actually.>

REFRAIN:

How do you tell somebody no,

After they've already asked you twice?

How do you tell somebody no,

When they're the one making the sacrifice?

How can you refuse something,

When you're the one who feels like they know nothing?

I don't really know...

But somehow I told you no.

I wasn't really thinking about you at the time,

So when you walked in, it was really a surprise.

You asked if I was feeling better 'bout the other night;

I could tell you were still hurt just by looking at your eyes.

How do you tell somebody no,

After they've already asked you twice?

How do you tell somebody mo,

When they're trying so hard to be nice?

I hadn't realized that you cared so,

Otherwise I might have started caring too.
Maybe next time it won't be as painful for you,
Already knowing my answer will be another no.

I suppose just one dance shouldn't be so hard,
I guess that saying yes might have been okay,
So why did I fell like it was going too far,
And why did I have to push you away?
