Lyrics
So I'm trying to learn Italian
And you're lying next to me
And the neighbor dog is howling
Well, it was really satisfying not to see you last night
Well, you had all sixteen excuses lined up in a row
Like blanks on the belt of a GI Joe
It's a really mystifying all this trying and trying
And then you asked if I was coming out
I said no and you said that's okay
I just wanted to know, then you said
I guess I'll see you later on, on the edge of the bed
And I say rock-a-bye
My sweet upon your broken bow
It's alright, we're speaking in
Different languages now, alright
Now the mockingbirds are singing
They're bringing up the sun and I'm thinking
Maybe that's what's cool about it
We've been trying to hold each other like a conversation
You said that maybe I wasn't looking
But I recognize the sounds just like you
But I can't form the words or they're too hard to spell
Your head is buried in the dictionary
And I say rock-a-bye
My sweet upon your broken bow
It's alright, we're speaking in
Different languages now
Smoothen your hair back
From your drunken brow, oh baby
It's alright, we're speaking in
Different languages now, alright
Well, all I know is that a couple of days go by
And I can't even read your lips, no, no
Things were fine the other day
And I said, well baby if you knew why
I bet you wouldn't feel this way
And you said, one hand on your heart
One hand on my head
Don't fall off the edge of the bed, sugar
And we just laughed
And I say rock-a-bye
My sweet upon your broken bow
It's alright, we're speaking in
Different languages now
Smoothen your hair back
From your drunken brow
It's alright, we're speaking in
Different languages any how, alright
Yeah
Alright
