Without Words

Last night I went to a bar I sat in a corner brooding It wasn't that far but Far enough from you Some guy was singing starry, starry night And we keep wasting precious time fighting After a while and a wine I got a little mellow I was thinking about Texting you a hello Now I'm scribbling songs On a beer mat Putting off What I most dread Why do we always have to talk Isn't there another way To get our thoughts across No endless explanations No heartless remarks Words never seem to come out right Talking won't get us through the night Why do we always have to talk Inside I talk all the time In imaginary conversations Then I get stuck And run away from you I step outside as night turns into day Will you understand a single word I say Why do we always have to talk Words never seem to come out right Why do we always have to talk Have to talk Have to talk We have to talk
