Can't Speak French

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.

I wait

I wait underneath the covers I lie beside you

And who ever question any cryin' I do?

My heavy heart is beating out of rhythm each time inside you

And I fall a little harder everytime that I do

But you're living it up

You totally

Got me stuck in a rut

You're made for me

How am I gonna step up

To say to you

I got the feeling, boy, I want you, want you

The conversation is tough

Because you're totally

Walking round all the stuff

You wanna say to me

Words are never enough

Oh baby , you turn my dust to gold

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking, oh oh oh

Oh, I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I'm in deep friend so I let the music do the talking

I gotta let you know

I wanna give into my temptation

And let my feelings show

I gotta let you know-oh

I gotta let you know

I wanna give into my temptation

Let my feelings show

I gotta let you know-oh-oh-oh

I can't speak French ho ooh oh how oh oh

I can't speak French so I...talking now

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I can't speak French so I let the funky music do the talking

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I'm in deep friend so I let the music do the talking

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking

I can't speak French so I let the music do the talking talking now

I'm in deep friend so I let the music do the talking

Oh Oh Oh

I can't speak French oh oh oh oh...
