Don't Talk lyrics

Don't talk, I will listen

Don't talk, you keep your distance

For I'd rather hear some truth tonight

Than entertain your lies

So take your poison silently

Let me be, let me close my eyes

Don't talk, I'll believe it

Don't talk, listen to me instead

I know that if you think of it

Both long enough and hard

The drink you drown your troubles in

Is the trouble you're in now

Talk talk talk about it

You talk as if you care

But when your talk is over, tilt that bottle in the air

Tossing back more than your share

Don't talk, I can guess it

Don't talk, well now you're restless

And you need somewhere to put the blame

For how you feel inside

You look for a close and easy mark

And you see me as fair game

Talk talk talk about it

You talk as if you care

But when your talk is over, tilt that bottle in the air

Tossing back more than your share

You talk talk talk about it

You talk as if you care

I'm marking every word and can tell this time for sure

Your talk is the finest I have heard

So don't talk, I was sleeping

Don't talk, let me go on dreaming

How your eyes they glow so fiercely

I can tell you're inspired

By the name you just chose for me

Now what was it? Oh, never mind it

We will talk talk talk about this

When your head is clear

I'll discuss this in the morning, but until then

You may talk, but I won't hear
