We sat in the half light
I didn't know what to say 
Oh you could never tell 
Why I do these things 
Why did I do these things 
I knew I wouldn't want to know 
I have betrayed myself 
For something poor and shallow 

She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard

Finally I'm closing in 
On what I have been chasing 
But as the moment comes 
It's just by expectation 
Ice wings of paradise 
The sky will try to follow 
That first kiss you had 
Will curse all your tomorrows 

She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard

Is it any wonder 
I easily find her 
I stand by the fountain 
When I call she answers 
Though I say 
No I don't know 
You're right

She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard
She was talking about 
Something she heard

Something she heard
Something she heard
Something she heard
Something she heard
Something she heard
