Lyrics
In A Word
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.
Stop, taking for granted
I am the one who's wrong
You might be surprised
Time standin' still - seems like we don't belong
You'll realize
Start giving to me all you can
Stop telling me girl just where I stand
Chorus:
It's your turn you should show what you know to me
One I've not heard before
My concern you can't tell what you know to me
You can't say it all in a word
Life turns around
Time not to look away
And face what you see
Truth shows itself - watch everything you say
When you're talking to me
You find yourself just in time
No don't be afraid of what you'll find on the way
Chorus:
It's your turn you should show what you know to me
One I've not heard before
My concern you can't tell what you know to me
You can't say it all in a word
It's your turn you should show what you know to me
One I've not heard before
My concern you can't tell what you know to me
You can't say it all in a word
(Instrumental break)
Chorus:
It's your turn you should show what you know to me
One I've not heard before
My concern you can't tell what you know to me
You can't say it all in a word
No you can't say it all in one word...
