| Words To Say |
 |
There are things louder than words can say.
Not to say them is your way.
There are things softer than words can say.
Not to say them is your way.
I want you to say them anyway. |
I hear the thumping of your heart.
I hear the soughing of your breath.
These are louder than words can say.
These are softer than words can say.
I want you to say them anyway. |
Say where I stand, where you are with me,
Whether you love or you don't love me.
These are things louder than words can say.
These are things softer than words can say.
I want to hear them anyway. |
Between your breasts I press my ear.
All there is to hear I hear,
Though heart may falter, mutter, skip. . .
I place my finger on your lip,
And feel your breath against its tip. |
Waves are roaring in my ear,
Our skin sings like a thousand wings
Of swallows plunging through the air,
I hear the creaking trees of your hair
Swept by the wind of words to say. |
There are things louder than words can say.
Not to say them is your way.
There are things softer than words can say.
Not to say them is your way.
I hear you say them anyway. |
