Talk - Rupert Holmes

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?
