Lyrics
The Way You Talk
Blackened like a blue fish
Singin’ a song I thought you should’ve known
Remember you like foreskin
Such a part of me but had to let it go
Do you understand me now
It couldn’t be more clear
If you can’t see the way tonight
It’ll never be more near
You’ve got to make me see you
I can’t see you any clearer when
I can’t talk the way you talk... alone
Lying like a used sheet
Follow your twisted lips down to our old fall
Save you and your fingertips
I gotta laugh as you’re shakin’ more and more
Do you understand me now
It couldn’t be more clear
‘Cause as I pull away from you
Your world becomes smaller than your tears
You’ve got to make me see you
I can’t see you any clearer when
I can’t talk the way you talk… alone
I can’t talk the way you talk… alone
I can’t talk the way you talk… alone
