When You Speak

when you speak,
we never say a word
when you speak,
you argue with yourself
when you speak,
you have all the answers
when you speak,
we're checking our e-mail

when you speak,
it's done so eloquently
when you speak,
you steal all the words
when you speak
there's nothing left to say
when you speak
there is no other way

when you speak,
do you love how it sounds
when you speak,
thoughts pile all around
when you speak,
we kiss the soil beneath your feet
when you speak,
we agonize in defeat

it's not tongue in cheek
every time you repeat
how special you are
how special you are
there's no doubt to speak
every time we see
how special you are
how special you are

Wrapped Around Me

I'm no good at parties
I'm nice to you because I need you
I'm nice because life can be so mean
I'm not good with money
I treat you right because I want you
I treat you well because I'm so keen

and I want your legs wrapped around
holding on so very tightly
breathing delicately
and I'll use this night
because my day's are so lonely

I'm no good at talking
I speak so you'll think you know me
I speak so that we can kiss
I'm not good at assuring
but I'll try to make you see
I'll try this time not to miss

and I want your arms wrapped around me
tied up so tightly
whispering silently
that you're not leaving
because my day's are so lonely
