About If You Say So

"If You Say So" is a song by the American singer Lea Michele, taken from her first studio album Louder (2014). It was written by Michele, Sia and Chris Braide, and was produced by the latter and Anne Preven. The song is about Michele's late boyfriend, Cory Monteith, and the aftermath of his death in July 2013. The song was not originally on the track list for Louder, as Michele had already completed recording for the album, but in the wake of Monteith's death she contacted Furler to write a song with her in his memory. The song was one of the last to be recorded for the album, along with Michele's first single "Cannonball".

It's been seven whole days, seven whole days
Since you paralyzed me
Seven whole days, seven whole days
Since you lost your fight
And I can't get the last words that you said
Can't get those words out of my head
Seven whole days, seven whole days and four words

And I can't get away from the burning pain
I lay awake
And the fallen hero haunts my thoughts
How could you leave me this way?

It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace
I wanna see your face
I got some things to say
Was just a week ago
You said, I love you girl
I said, I love you more
Then a breath, a pause, you said
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so

It's been seven whole days, seven whole days
Since I heard the phone ring
Seven whole days, seven whole days
Since I heard your voice
And I can't get the last words that you say
Can't get those words out of my head
It's been seven whole days, seven whole days of pure hurt

And I can't get away from the burning pain
I lay awake
And the fallen hero haunts my thoughts
How could you leave me this way?

It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace
I wanna see your face
I got some things to say
Was just a week ago
You said, I love you girl
I said, I love you more
Then a breath, a pause, you said
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so

I can't believe it's true
I keep looking for you
I check my phone and wait to hear from you
In the crowded room
The joker is so cruel

And now I'll never know
If all I've been told, is just a lie so bold
I thought we would grow old
Mirrors in the smoke
Left me here to choke

It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace
I wanna see your face
I got some things to say
Was just a week ago
You said, I love you girl
I said, I love you more
Then a breath, a pause, you said
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so
If you say so
