Not a Word Songtext
von Ftakke

I see you see me walking down the street
There′s a bit of concrete under our feet
You're on the opposite side of me
At a waving distance from here

I like the way you walk elegantly
With a swish in your hip and back
That makes my doubts rise angrily
As you hypnotize my soul

And I still won′t say
A word
And I still can't take
That step

Now you're sitting down in the pub
Looking clean from a trip to the tub
You′re on the opposite corner of me
At a shouting distance from here


I like the way you drink your White Russian
With a sip and a swirl of your tongue
That makes my heart play African percussion
As you stare right in my soul

And I still won′t say
A word
And I still can't take
That step

I gotta make a move, I don′t know how
I'm talking nonsense, I′d better shut up
She's looking great but she gives me doubts
And suddenly I feel so puny inside
Maybe I′d just break the silence
And then again what have I got to lose
I get up and I make my way

I say "Hi" and I brace myself

And then I see you leaving in a hurry
What has happened is kinda funny
She's on an opposite level of me
That's nowhere close from here


And then I notice the dripping pool
Is that your drink on the floor?
You must think I′m such a fool
Spilling your drink like that

And I still won′t say
A word
And I still can't take
That step
