when you re quiet but your eyes are saying everything i need to know i want to burrow like a sparrow dodging alley cats and whiskers why do we talk in whispers is it painful hearing voices ring so early in the morning i ve been waiting for the day when i can throw away these numbers that line my dresser drawers and cupboards start me over life seems so much slower with your toothbrush by the mirror can i make it any clearer and i just might say it tonight i just might say it tonight and i just might tell you tonight that i love you and you should stay all my life they ll tell you that you ll maybe make it if you just cut your clothes and change your hair but i won t fuss and moan bout what you wear i feel so much better when i read your dirty letters just wear your sweaters in the winter cause i wouldn t want you to get cold i hope that we re together when we re old i would have sold all my possessions never took piano lessons but baby you re a grand and i will learn to play the good notes and tune you up the best i can and i just might say it tonight i just might say it tonight i just might tell you tonight that i love you and you should stay all my life and i just might say it tonight i just might say it tonight i just might tell you tonight that i love you and you should stay all my life
