Careless talk
|
That's what you heard about me
|
Jealous talk
|
That's what I heard about you
|
Everybody's telling lies
|
I don't even know why
|
Why can't people
|
Find something better to do
|
|
Careless talk
|
I don't believe what they say
|
I heard them talk
|
They say you've been putting me down
|
|
In the shadows on the phone
|
They won't leave us alone
|
They've been talking
|
Ever since you came around
|
|
Careless talk
|
Telling you I'm doing wrong
|
Jealous talk
|
Follows wherever you go
|
|
I'm aware of what you heard
|
Every terrible word
|
Everybody's making believe that they know
|
All of the intimate things
|
That we might have said
|
|
In the heat of a passionate moment
|
In a conversation shared
|
For the ears of nobody else
|
There are some things they will never hear
|
There are secrets I'll never tell
|
Careless talk
|
Going around on the street
|
Jealous talk
|
I know how bad it can be
|
|
Let them stand where they fall
|
They don't know us at all
|
All that talking won't make a difference to me
|
