Voices Carry

I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind

But I'm frightened of the things I might find

There must be something he's thinking of

To tear him away-a-ay

When I tell him that I'm falling in love

Oh, why does he say-a-ay?

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Uh-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

Uh-ah

Oh!

He wants me, but only part of the time

Oh!

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

Hush hush, shut up now, voices carry

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush hush, darling, she might overhear

Hush, voices carry

And he said shut up, oh, he said shut up

Oh God, but can't you keep it down?

These voices carry

Oh, and hush, oh, hush, voices carry

Hush hush, oh, hush, voices carry
