Once & Not Speak - Tanita Tikaram
Well I might be politic Or I might just grab your hand I'm not selfish with my story I just want something, understand Oh, this world is not for grieving It's not grieving for my cry And I hate this growl inside And you better believe it when I tell you That it's all growing Untill you learn to trust Well this wash it wasn't easy No this wash just doesn't dream It just makes the whole thing cluttered, yes And when you've seen the sights it's best to scream I'm not stolen from the souless I'm just driven to the white So, you really ought to catch me now You really ought to join the fight And if I tell you all my secrets That you ever wanted to hear - it's Once and not speak Once and not speak Once and not speak Well, no one wants to play this Well, no one likes the dark And we just checked in for higher love Well, that's another - you like sparks Well, I'll fly across the evening Least, I'll smile across the hall to you But it better not be fascinate It beter just be wall-to-wall And if I tell you all my secrets That you ever wanted to hear - it's Once and not speak Once and not speak Once and not speak Well, I'm the tired recluse, yes And I'm tired of this courtyrad And every grateful day's the herdline Well, the crafty were just leaving They've forgotten how to talk And that slither through the evening Was just another kind of walk with me Well, I'll tell you what you wanted Leat I'll stunt you with my grace And I know it's all so easy But I just want to find your face And if I tell you all my secrets That you ever wanted to hear - it's Once and not speak Once and not speak Once and not speak
