Come Talk To Me

The bugles blow as one

You lie there with your eyes half closed,

Like there's no-one there at all

There's a tension pulling on your face

Come on, come talk to me

Won't you please talk to me

If you'd just talk to me

Unblock this misery

If you'd only talk to me

Don't you ever change your mind

Now your future's so defined

And you act so deaf so blind

Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me, come talk to me

-------

I can imagine the moment

Breaking out through the silence

All the things that we both might say

And the heart it will not be denied

'Til we're both on the same damn side

All the barriers blown away

I said please talk to me

Won't you please come talk to me

Just like it used to be

Come on, come talk to me

I did not come to steal

This all is so unreal

Can you show me how you feel now

Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me, come talk to me

I said please talk to me

If you'd just talk to me

Unblock this misery

If you'd only talk to me

Don't you ever change your mind

Now your future's so defined

And you act so deaf so blind

Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me, come talk to me
