They sat at the table, polite conversation Avoiding the issue at hand Then he made the coffee and she did the dishes And sat down at the table again She waited a moment hoping he would speak first Though it never had happened before He sat there in silence expecting the worst Til she couldn't wait anymore She said "I'm mad" He heard "I'm leaving" She said "I need your attention" He heard "I want you to crawl" She said "I'm sad" He heard "It's all your fault" There is no translation Emotions don't fit into words Theres so much between what she And what he heard She said "I love you" thats not the problem And I know how much you care But for too long now we've been walking on eggshells I just had to clear the air He looked at her like she was speaking chinese With some of the letters left out Try as he may he just didn't know What she was talking about She said "I'm mad" He heard "I'm leaving" She said "I need your attention" He heard "I want you to crawl" She said "I'm sad" He heard "It's all your fault" There is no translation Emotions don't fit into words Theres so much between what she And what he heard Then he started smiling And she started laughing They both reached out their hands She said "I think we're from two different planet No wonder we misunderstand" She said "I'm mad" He heard "I'm leaving" She said "I need your attention" He heard "I want you to crawl" She said "I'm sad" He heard "It's all your fault" There is no translation Emotions don't fit into words Theres so much between what she And what he heard
