These Stones Will Shout

These Stones Will Shout

[Verse 1]

Well you impress me so completely

I start obsessing to hear from you

Whatever you do, you do sweetly

It takes a lot to not take from you

You're not secure enough to tell me

Your first impression of all these clowns

So you'll be tricky enough to compel me

To take the lead and to speak out loud

Yeah

[Chorus]

Speak to me and don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

[Verse 2]

And if you find yourself repeating

Some of those incoherent sounds

Just talkin' to yourself is cheating

You might as well stick your head in the ground

Yeah

[Chorus]

Speak to me and don't speak softly

Talk to me and let meknow

Grab hold of my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

[Verse 3]

I feel compelled to just yell out for you

To say the words that you can't bring out

But I cannot do everything for you

And if I don't then these stones will shout

Yeah if I don't, then these stones will shout

Well if I don't, then these stones will shout

(If I don't then these stones will shout)

[Bridge]

So if I were to just lay in silence

(If I don't then these stones will shout)

And see if you would take control

(If I don't then these stones will shout)

These stones below me then may become violent

(If I don't then these stones will shout)

And they will wrestle me, pester me, mess with me

(If I don't then these stones willshout)

Just tryin' to free your soul

[Chorus]

Speak to me and don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

[Outro]

Speak to me and don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go
