Words Get In The Way
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.
Come here buttercup.
Let me fill you up.
Can't you see I'm the blue in you're skies?
You can tell by the stars in my eyes.
Dawn always comes too soon.
It hurts me like a bruise.
There's a hole in my pillow where you used to be.
It feels like a hole in the middle of me.
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with you every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
Tell your boss you're dead.
And lets go back to bed.
You make me wanna break out a song
But everytime I try it just comes out wrong
Oh oh oh
Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey.
Oh oh oh
Say you're still my man
I try to find the words to say
That I want you always to stay
To wake up with you every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way
I leave a message on you're answering machine
I try to say what I really mean
