Speak

I didn't hear you enter But I know you have been circling my room I listen for your footsteps Close my eyes and wait for you to move You're hiding like a memory Teasing like a girl I used to know You're tumbling, gambling Calling to the weakness in my soul Telling me to speak Ooh And in one reckless moment You move a little too close to my ears I grab a hold with both hands And scramble to make sense of what I hear I try to tie you down With synonyms and sad piano sounds For a moment, you surrender One moment we both stand on the same ground And I begin to speak (oh-oh) (Oh-oh) ooh, ooh And all at once you pull away I'm lost within your atmosphere As quickly as you found me I panic as you try to disappear I reach out with my fingers And try to pull the letters back in line But your words spin out of order And the pounding in my chest is out of time And I just want to speak (oh-oh) Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh
