Right Words

One smile was all it took Few words later and you got me hooked One mile and I still look The chance I never took You speak and I’m here tripping I can’t help it now I’m falling You laugh and off I fly What is this you’re doing to me? And the silence that does come Doesn’t compare to the wrong I’ve done I’m hanging on to your every breath Just to hear what you say next I wait, anticipate, for you to ask Tell me you want me, I’ll give you all I am It’s crazy that you got me and you have to wonder But here I am hanging on a thread because of the right words Lightyears from where we’ve been I know your words and all they mean New words I don’t see coming Memorized and coloured in And the silence that does visit Now shaded with subtleties we learn to notice I read you like an open book With every word, I’m still hooked I wait, anticipate, for you to ask Tell me you want me, I’ll give you all I am It’s crazy that you got me and you have to wonder But here I am hanging on a thread because of the right words I wait, anticipate, for you to ask Tell me you need me, I’ll give you all I have It’s crazy that you got me and you have to wonder But here I am hanging on a thread because of the right words And the silence that does come Doesn’t compare to the wrong I’ve done I’m hanging on to your every breath Wondering what you say next I wait, anticipate, for you to ask Tell me you want me, I’ll give you all I am It’s crazy that you got me and you have to wonder But here I am hanging on a thread because of the right words I wait, anticipate, for you to ask Tell me you need me, I’ll give you all I have It’s crazy that you got me you don’t need to wonder You know that I’m a sucker for the right words
