Speak Songtext
von David Osmond

We′re both alone, we got our phones
But I won't hear your voice tonight
Feeling slow, even though
My fingers move fast as light
Takes so long to carry on
A simple conversation
But everyone who′s anyone
No longer wants to face someone

Doesn't anyone talk anymore?
Though face to face is out of place
I think it used to mean something
Doesn't anyone know anymore?
Through my eyes you′ll see my soul

Just speak, speak to me
Your messages are instantly
More than 160 letters can say
Tell me why you and I
Try to hide deep behind characters
When we could speak


So many times in my mind
Thought that I was understood
But came to find the thought that I
Verbalized was no good
It seems to me and I believe
It limits me spiritually
To comprehend what you intend
When you send it digitally

Doesn′t anyone talk anymore?
Why do I give so much time
To exercise these hands of mine?
Doesn't anyone look anymore
Into one another′s eyes?

Oh, speak, just speak
I just realized I'm constantly
Updating pages to faces
That I can′t see
So why, why don't I
Search for the answers
From someone who knows me
And please, to me, speak


Speak, speak to me
Your messages are instantly
More than you′ll ever be able to say
And I know you're mine
But still, I'd love some time
Could you please just speak, speak to me?
Just speak
