Afterthought - Close Talker

Read my heart and say

«We'll make it alright if you follow along»

And I’ll throw it away;

Keepin' it all we said that we won’t

Show it off, to some dismay

Bottles in the heat of the night

Feel soft.

I hate to say

«Shake it off and it’ll be alright.»

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

I’ve said it like a hundred times

I feel my life’s untied and pacin' into overdrive

Keep it in a tight bouquet

So nobody can recognize

It’s not the way I’d hoped that our moanin' was advertised

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

But like this song, it became an afterthought

I feel so far away

While we’re sittin' here in a similar room

And I feel so far away

Even though its all we’ve been doin'

About to go away --

I’m taking off just for a month

It’ll probably be ok

We’re usually better when we can’t talk enough

C’mon read my heart and say

«You'll make it alright if you follow along»

And I’ll throw it away

Keepin' it all we said they were going

It’s just the time won’t last for long

We’ll feel like more than just an afterthought

Just the time I hope is gone

Shake it off, about to go on

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

I’ve said it like a hundred times

I feel my life’s untied and pacin' into overdrive

Keep it in a tight bouquet

So nobody can recognize

It’s not the way I’d hoped that our movin' was advertised

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

I’ve said it like a hundred times

I feel my life’s untied and pacin' into overdrive

Keep it in a tight bouquet

So nobody can recognize

It’s not the way I’d hoped that our movin' was advertised

When you said «it's so fine» when you started then

When you said «you're all mine until we start all over.»

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

I’ve said it like a hundred times

I feel my life’s untied and pacin' into overdrive

Keep it in a tight bouquet

So nobody can recognize

It’s not the way I’d hoped that our moanin' was advertised

Come on baby, won’t you stay?

I’ve said it like a hundred times

I feel my life’s untied and pacin' into overdrive

Keep it in a tight bouquet

So nobody can recognize

It’s not the way I’d hoped that our moanin' was advertised
