I Can't Get Through To You

(album: Mania / Post Mania - 2020)

Could we speak a while in confidence?
Shall we blaze a trail through common sense?
The night ignites dreams of the past
The light invites thoughts to move past

As the dust warns me of it's coming, ooh
I'm reminded of the longing, ooh
Which doesn't spare me my fall
I can't get, I can't get through to you at all

Could we lie a while in silence?
Or shall we reconvene once we're cleansed of our sins?
The comfort of sex seems to be (aah)
The only escape made available to me

As your skin soaks into my skin, ooh
It seems reason enough to begin again
But slowly I recall how
I can't get, I can't get through to you at all

Could you whisper another lie to me?
Shall we bask in false security?
I'd rather play dumb than sleep alone tonight
Pretend that I don't know a thing about you and him

It's enough to make me shiver, ooh
Almost enough to make me cry (cry)
But not enough to make me call
But I can't get, I can't get through to you at all
