Voices Carry

(album: Portico II - 2017)

In the dark, I'd like to read his mind
But I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
To drive him away
When I tell him that I'm falling in love
Why does he say

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry

I try so hard not to get upset
'Cause I know all the trouble I'll get
Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
And something to fear-eh-eh
And I try so hard to keep it inside
So no one can hear

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Uh-ah
Oh!

He wants me, but only part of the time
He wants me, if I can keep it in line

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, shut up now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Oh Oh Oh Oh

(Hush hush) keep it down now, voices carry
Hush, hush voices carry (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
He said shut up, he said shut up (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
Oh God can't you keep it down (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
Voices carry (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
I wish he would let me talk (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
Hush, hush voices carry (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
Hush, hush voices carry (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
Hush, hush voices carry (Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry)
