I guess I thought we were indivisible Remember when the distance wasn't insurmountable I'd run all night Just to hear you speak in tongues to me Now we stare at phones And talk in awkward teenage poetry When I get to you yeah my blood runs cold 'Cos I don't recognise the person I behold Underneath the moon yeah we shake our bones But I don't understand When you speak in tongues I can't understand a single word you say Sex and politics a dangerous game we play It's all we've ever known We're speaking in tongues Face to face but miles away We're speaking in tongues I can't find the words to say We're speaking in tongues You're speaking in tongues You're speaking in tongues to me I confess I was never one for waxing lyrical But the radio Taunts me with its modern parables It don't make sense but it's all I know When you're face down there's still further to go Underneath the moon yeah we shake our bones But I don't understand When you speak in tongues I can't understand a single word you say Sex and politics a dangerous game we play It's all we've ever known We're speaking in tongues Face to face but miles away We're speaking in tongues I can't find the words to say We're speaking in tongues You're speaking in tongues You're speaking in tongues to me I danced with the devil In the pale moonlight You’ve got such a sharp tongue Cuts me like a knife I danced with the devil In the pale moonlight You’ve got such a sharp tongue Cuts me like a knife We're speaking in tongues I danced with the devil We're speaking in tongues I danced with the devil We're speaking in tongues I danced with the devil In the pale moonlight Oh
