In a manner of speaking

I just want to say

That I could never forget the way

You told me everything

By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking

I dont understand

How love in silence becomes reprimand

But the way I feel about you

Is beyond words



Oh give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me nothing

Oh give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me everything



In a manner of speaking

Semantics wont do

In this life that we live

We only make do

And the way that we feel

Might have to be sacrificed



So in a manner of speaking

I just want to say

That like you I should find a way

To tell you everything

By saying nothing



Oh give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me nothing

Oh give me the words

Give me the words

Give me the words

Give me the words

Give me the words
