Shallow
Kissing the stone wall where we once lay
Sends me to thinking of words I'd say
Kissing your sweet lips, still so tongue-tied
Love's a word that I could say time and time again
Love's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Dragging me over the highest wall
Holding me tightly, for fear I fall
How could I ever explain in words?
Hurt's a word that I could say time and time again
Hurt's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
Singing your praises, while you're with her
Foolishly patient for your return
Silent you left me
And silence stays
Pain's a word that I could say time and time again
Pain's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
Won't you wait and see?
Won't you wait and see?
Won't you wait and see?
What I could say, what I should say, what I can say
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
Sends me to thinking of words I'd say
Kissing your sweet lips, still so tongue-tied
Love's a word that I could say time and time again
Love's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Dragging me over the highest wall
Holding me tightly, for fear I fall
How could I ever explain in words?
Hurt's a word that I could say time and time again
Hurt's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
Singing your praises, while you're with her
Foolishly patient for your return
Silent you left me
And silence stays
Pain's a word that I could say time and time again
Pain's a thing that takes a thousand words to explain
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
Won't you wait and see?
Won't you wait and see?
Won't you wait and see?
What I could say, what I should say, what I can say
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Words come so quickly seem
Shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow, shallow
Still they're true
