The wretched desert takes its form, the jackal proud and tight
|
In search of you, I feel my way, though the slowest heaving night
|
Whatever fear invents, I swear it make no sense
|
I reach through the border fence
|
Come down, come talk to me
|
|
In the swirling, curling storm of desire unuttered words hold fast
|
With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes towers built to last
|
Darkness creeps in like a thief and offers no relief
|
Why are you shaking like a leaf
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
|
Ah please talk to me
|
Won't you please talk to me
|
We can unlock this misery
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
|
[Chorus 1:]
|
I did not come to steal
|
This all is so unreal
|
Can't you show me how you feel now
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
Come talk to me [x2]
|
|
The earthly power sucks shadowed milk from sleepy tears undone
|
From nippled skin as smooth as silk the bugles blown as one
|
You lie there with your eyes half closed like there's no-one there at all
|
There's a tension pulling on your face
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
|
Won't you please talk to me
|
If you'd just talk to me
|
Unblock this misery
|
If you'd only talk to me
|
|
[Chorus 2:]
|
Don't you ever change your mind
|
Now your future's so defined
|
And you act so deaf and blind
|
(And you act so deaf so blind)
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
Come talk to me [x2]
|
|
I can imagine the moment
|
Breaking out through the silence
|
All the things that we both might say
|
And the heart it will not be denied
|
'Til we're both on the same damn side
|
All the barriers blown away
|
|
I said please talk to me
|
Won't you please come talk to me
|
Just like it used to be
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
I did not come to steal
|
This all is so unreal
|
Can you show me how you feel now
|
Come on, come talk to me
|
Come talk to me [x2]
|
|
I said please talk to me
|
If you'd just talk to me
|
Unblock this misery
|
If you'd only talk to me
|
[Chorus 2]
|
