You Talk Too Much

(album: The Silence Is Broken - 1997)

I've opened your eyes but you still won't see
Why a girl like you should want a boy like me
You can try but you'll fail to derail my one track mind

I wasn't raised to come on like this
Unsatisfied with your goodnight kissing listen, I've been cool
But baby, it's high time we went to school

Ooh you talk too much just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush
One more night and a lame excuse
Ain't gonna change my mind no, it ain't no use
I give you my love and I don't get your magic touch
Ooh you talk too much

Oil and water would be more right
The limits we have are like fire and ice
Your daddy must be so proud you draw that line

If I were a picture, then you'd be the neg
But know that I ain't too prideful
To beg you on one bended knee
'Till what I get is more what I've seen

Ooh you talk too much just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush
One more night and a lame excuse
Ain't gonna change my mind no, it ain't no use
I'm gonna explode if you don't feel my crush
Ooh you talk too much

Trying to recover 'cuz you saw it my way
Walking two feet off the ground on a hard night's day
(I was) basking in the glow so it caught me unaware
When you met me at the door saying, "Stop right there!"

Ooh you talk too much just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
Didn't you make me a deal when I called your bluff?
I wasn't fooling 'bout (our) fooling around
Why'd you open your mouth man? It's all over town!
You had to go and blow what could've been so plush
Ooh you talk too much
