These Words of Mine
Honey, there's a silence that's been growing
Shows no signs of slowing, is there something on your mind?
Lately, I've been tossing words like stones into an ocean
Taken out and nothing's left behind
At night I try my best to climb the walls that you've been building
It's hard to know where to start
Would it be so hard to say three words before you go?
'Cause I just need to know
That you're not going to go and break my heart
'Cause these words of mine
I pour them like water and spill them like wine and now I can see
All of these words and you've none left for me
Just unspoken sentences lost to a breeze
Keep looking out for signs of what's inside and now and
Then I've even tried to read your body like it's braille
I weave tapestries from similes
I sow my verbs like flower seeds
I've tried to win your words to no avail
Is it me, can I not see the signals that you're leaving?
Honey, I can't read your mind
Would it be so hard to say three words before you go?
'Cause I just need to know
That you're not going to go and waste my time
Just tell me that you want me, that you need me
You won't leave me, tell me just how much you need me here tonight
Tell me stories, lies or secrets, any words in any sequence
Just don't leave me waiting here for your reply
'Cause these words of mine
I pour them like water and spill them like wine
Now I can see all of these words and you've nothing for me
Just unspoken sentences lost to a breeze
Shows no signs of slowing, is there something on your mind?
Lately, I've been tossing words like stones into an ocean
Taken out and nothing's left behind
At night I try my best to climb the walls that you've been building
It's hard to know where to start
Would it be so hard to say three words before you go?
'Cause I just need to know
That you're not going to go and break my heart
'Cause these words of mine
I pour them like water and spill them like wine and now I can see
All of these words and you've none left for me
Just unspoken sentences lost to a breeze
Keep looking out for signs of what's inside and now and
Then I've even tried to read your body like it's braille
I weave tapestries from similes
I sow my verbs like flower seeds
I've tried to win your words to no avail
Is it me, can I not see the signals that you're leaving?
Honey, I can't read your mind
Would it be so hard to say three words before you go?
'Cause I just need to know
That you're not going to go and waste my time
Just tell me that you want me, that you need me
You won't leave me, tell me just how much you need me here tonight
Tell me stories, lies or secrets, any words in any sequence
Just don't leave me waiting here for your reply
'Cause these words of mine
I pour them like water and spill them like wine
Now I can see all of these words and you've nothing for me
Just unspoken sentences lost to a breeze
