Nanci Griffith - More Than A Whisper songtekst

Je score:

Oh, I wish that you would call
We have not spoken since last fall
That smoky conversation's coming home
Do I just read between your lines
Yeah, it could be this winter wine
So sweet upon my tongue tonight
It recalls your tender eyes

And I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh, give me more than a whisper
If you're saying I love you
'Cos it's the whispers that I've never understood

And it's snowing up in the northlands
I read your warm words from the plains
While the poets say that I should never
Be thinking of you this way
They say that I misread your lines
Because I've been lonely all my life
And I'd be reaching for some silver
And leaving my heart out in the fire

And I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh, give me more than a whisper
If you're saying I love you
'Cos it's the whispers that I've never understood

Well, I will drink my winter wine
When I get home I'll change my life
I'll only whisper that I love you
In those smoky bars at night
And though the poets say I'm lonely
There's still this woman here inside
And I've never been a fool
When my heart was on the line

'Cos I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh, give me more than a whisper
If you're saying I love you
'Cos it's the whispers that I've never understood
