Soft,I will say it softly
Another time when you’re watching me
And wait til im on the straight and narrow right way home
Take your line from a child
Make him say it again
And I may live a long life
But time it goes quicker when we both keep quiet
And no , no more ways to say goodbye
Take the words off my chest, they are all I have left
And I may be Thoughtless,
When you put your arms around me are they wider than they feel
And I am a voice without a reason
I like to feel I’m needed but I think I want to leave
Shaped, shaped just like a shell boy
I open up and you help yourself
Away from anybody else
Once last breath to the sail
I’ll step under the swell for you
My love learned my mother tongue
And I didn’t even mind when he got the word for sorry wrong
And listening I caught the ends of songs I left unsung
I wrote another line for you but all my words were gone
And I may be thoughtless
When you name the things you love I am the spaces inbetween
And I am a voice without a reason
You’d like to hear an answer but I think I want to leave
And if i have a long life
I’ll turn myself around
And I’ll make it all alright
