Communication
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Maybe he'll touch me, maybe he won't
Maybe he's just turning over
Feeling the words drying up in my throat
Maybe he's sleeping, maybe he's not
Maybe I whisper I love you
Maybe the whisper is all that I've got
Could this be heaven, could this be hell
Lying asleep with a stranger
The stranger's the man that I once knew so well
Lying in darkness, lying so still
Why do we lie to each other?
Pretending the things will work out until ...
[Chorus:]
Communication lets us down
It just went over and out
Communication gets us down
It just went over and over and over and ...
Once there was loving, then there was love
Two people wrapped in each other
Now separate shadows on the ceiling - no more
Then there was screaming, yelling and fights - over and over and over
Now the silence in this silent night .... aaawh
[Chorus]
Now won't you listen please
Oh, don't pretend that you're asleep
It seems like such an empty bed
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over ...
Communication lets us down
It just went over and out
Communication gets us down
It just went over and out
[Chorus 2x]
