To t.v. screens and complex books

My inner world of reason looks
|
To try to feel or touch the things you see
|
|
With a face and voice so serious
|
Words so detached in spite of us
|
You overjustify how you feel
|
|
And every line makes perfect sense
|
You've long rehearsed this circumstance
|
Words don't say enough
|
Silence is your best defense
|
Words don't say enough
|
|
So many years the time has flown
|
The ups and downs the world we've grown
|
accustomed to
|
Has given us our share
|
|
But I never thought we'd come to this
|
When face to face we can't exist
|
There's no use trying to find what's not there
|
|
You think you've had the final say
|
But that was over yesterday
|
Words don't say enough
|
Words come cheap so don't explain
|
Words don't say enough
|
|
Speak the language of love
|
Tell it straight from your heart
|
Take a chance and open up
|
Let the message ring clear
|
You've got nothing to fear
|
Tell it like it is
|
|
Open up your heart and mind
|
Thoughts and feelings realign
|
You've got yours and I've got mine
|
|
Enough's enough, enough's enough
|
Enough's enough
|
So take a chance and open up
|
|
Speak the language of love
|
Tell it straight from your heart
|
Take a chance and open up
|
Let the message ring clear
|
You've got nothing to fear
|
Tell it like it is
|
|
Open up your heart and mind
|
Thoughts and feelings realign
|
You've got yours and I've got mine
|
Word's don't say enough
|
|
What is wrong with your life
|
Take a look down deep inside
|
Love is going back in time
|
Words don't say enough
|
|
To t.v. screens and complex books
|
My inner world of reason looks
|
With a face and voice so serious
|
You overjustify how you feel
|
