When she said, "I don't really want to know you All I wanna do is show you" Why did I begin to talk? When I said, "Tell me do you like linguine? Have you seen the new Fellini?" That's when she began to walk Well, if there's smoke in her eyes You would think that I'd get wise But I can't let my love do the speakin' Talk All I do is talk Can I say the word that my heart is sure of? Oh talk I'm up to here with talk Every sound you heard held me back from your... This is it-now is when I oughta hold her But I wait, you're growing older Even though she's in my reach So we sit looking at the television Listening to a politician Making us a helpless speech And it's soon close to dawn And my baby starts to yawn So I say goodbye in the lobby Talk All I do is talk Can I say the word that my heart is sure of? Oh talk I'm up to here with talk Every sound you heard held me back from your love Oh talk All I do is talk Can I say the word that my heart is sure of?
