|
She says no |
|
When she means yes |
|
And what she wants |
|
You know that I can't guess |
|
When we want more |
|
You know we ask for less |
|
Such is the language of love |
|
I say leave |
|
When I mean stay |
|
But she don't see |
|
And so she moves away |
|
What we really want |
|
You know we rarely say |
|
Such is the language of love |
|
It's tooth for tooth |
|
And eye for eye |
|
We hide our hearts |
|
And then we won't say why |
|
It's truth for truth |
|
And lie for lie |
|
Such is the language of love |
|
One cries foul |
|
And will not speak |
|
The other claims a little victory |
|
And all the time |
|
You know we fail to see |
|
This is the language of love |
|
When a loves begins to wander |
|
No one ever knows |
|
But we feel it deep inside us |
|
Long before it shows |
|
Long before it shows |
|
We hem and haw |
|
We balk and bluff |
|
Our words don't ever |
|
Seem to say enough |
|
But a simple smile |
|
A tender touch |
|
Speaks the true language of love |
|
When a loves begins to wander |
|
No one ever knows |
|
But we feel it deep inside us |
|
Long before it shows |
|
Long before it shows |
|
She says no |
|
When she means yes |
|
And what she wants |
|
You know that I can't guess |
|
When we want more |
|
You know we ask for less |
|
Such is the language of love |
|
Such is the language of love |
