Let's Talk

All right, this is only one bad night
I was lonely, he was tired
Maybe next time things will feel the way things feel when he is mine
So he says, and I am fine
So I say again tonight--and he's drifting
And he's drifting each time we speak

I guess we ran out of words, I guess we ran out the clock
Nothing to say, but we need to talk
Ran out of words and now the silence is dull
Couldn't pay rent for the place in your skull

Where I used to sit all night
We were mirrors side by side
Even as you held my eyes you were drifting
You were drifting each time you smiled

I guess we ran out of words, I guess we ran out the clock
Nothing to say, but we need to talk
Ran out of words and still I force you to speak
Just answer my questions and then you can leave
Ran out of words for the things we don't feel
Cuz it was unspoken, and now it's unreal
Ran out of words and now the silence is dull
Couldn't pay rent for the place in your skull
That I used to call home

Try me
You can tell me anything
I'll just be here listening to your careful breathing

I guess we ran out of words because we said them too soon
Got out of me what I wanted from you
Ran out of words because we used them like touch
Yeah it was my fault I asked for too much
Ran out of words because I couldn't get full
I was insatiable
Ran out of words and at the ends of the phone
We are both restless, feeling alone
We'll talk when you're home
