I've been trying to tell you Everything you need to hear But my words seem to hollow out Before they reach your ears Though I know you too have things to say That much is clear Oh must you interfere? Now I know there's not an evil bone inside you I know that that's true But there are things I've said many times now that aren't getting through If we can't listen to one another what good am I to you I know one thing we can do How about we try and take a pause A little time away to help the cause How about we try and take a pause here I wanna give you everything Everything you say you need But to talk over each other we know quite well Where that leads Let's change the way this goes Let's plant a seed It might grow like a weed How about we try and take a pause A little time away to help the cause How about we try and take a pause here How about we let the fire die Leave our emotions there to lie How about we let the fire die now How about we try and take a pause A little time away to help the cause How about we try and take a pause here How about we let the fire die Leave our emotions there to lie, my love How about we let the fire die now
