Common Tongue

Pasty shirt floating in the city breeze
Wearing my black jeans
It's 25 degrees
She's got some good flats on and a flowery tee
And I just can't believe
That she's walking over to meet me
And with her eyes
She said, I like the way you look
I hope I'm not misunderstood
'Cause my English isn't good
But we don't really need that
You took my breath away
I can't say what I want to say
'Cause my Spanish isn't great
But love's the common tongue
Love's the common tongue
The common tongue
Love's the common tongue
Do you wanna walk with me
In the guide of love?
I wanna get to know ya
I wanna know if you came down from above
Do you wanna dance with me 'till the sun comes up?
I can feel your breath escape the eyes
She said, I like the way you look
I hope I'm not misunderstood
'Cause my English isn't good
But we don't really need that
You took my breath away
I can't say what I want to say
'Cause my Spanish isn't great
But love's the common tongue
Love's the common tongue
The common tongue
Since that love
Once last love
No matter I'll never ever
No matter I'll never ever see you again
Stay in touch
Your my sun-splashed queen
Here's to the memories
Thanks for the 12-hour
I like the way you look
I hope I'm not misunderstood
My English isn't good
But we don't really need that
You took my breath away
I can't say what I want to say
'Cause my Spanish isn't great
But love's the common tongue
Love's the common tongue
Love's the common tongue
The common tongue
The common tongue
Sun-splashed love
The common tongue
Hoping that someday I'll see you again
The common tongue
