Ricky Nelson - Conversation lyrics

Conversation, gettin' so hard to make I try to communicate, but i can't get through We are strangers, but I remember when You used to be my friend and my lover too And I don't really know how it happened And I don't really know what to say I just wonder how we ever got this way Conversation, that's what it's all about Why can't we talk it out, say what's on our minds Situations keep gettin' in the way So much we need to say, but we're running out of time And I don't really know how it happened I have tried but I don't understand How we ever let it get so out of hand Just like a dream you can't remember Even though you always wish you could When it's gone, it's gone forever When it's gone, it's gone for good Conversation, things that we've done and said Keep running through my head like a sad echo Desperation is gettin' the best of me Can't seem to make you see that I can't let go And I don't really know how it happened And I don't really know what to say But I can't bring myself to throw it all away
