Communication

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



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, aww



Communication lets us down

It just went over and out

Communication gets us down

It just went over, and over, and over, and



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



Communication lets us down

It just went over and out

Communication gets us down

It just went over, and over, and over, and



Communication lets us down

It just went over and out

Communication gets us down

It just went over, and over, and over, and



Communication
