Voices Carry

In the dark, I'd like to read his mind

But I'm frightened of the things I might find

Oh, there must be something he's thinking of

To tear him away, a-ay

When I tell him that I'm falling in love

What does he say? A-ay

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Ah-ah

I try so hard not to get upset

Because I know all the trouble I'll get

Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide

And something to fear, eh-eh

And I try so hard to keep it inside

So no one can hear

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Ah-ah

Oh!

He wants me, but only part of the time

He wants me, if he can keep me in line

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Oh, oh, oh, hush, hush, shut up now, voices carry

Oh, oh, oh, hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Oh, oh, oh, hush, hush, darling, she might overhear

Hush, hush, oh, oh, voices carry

Hush, hush, he said shut up

He said shut up

Oh God, can't you keep it down?

Voices carry

Hush, hush, oh, oh voices carry

I wish he would let me talk
