The Conversation Songtext
von G Tom Mac

Somewhere in the conversation
Someone got high and turned down the lights
You read me what my palm was saying
Look at those lines, I must have been blind

Are you so confident that you can turn my world around?
Why would you want to put the lock on now?
You know you′re beautiful when you just laugh at yourself
You tell me it's a shame I′m jaded
How lucky I am to be who I am
I tell you I'm a worn-out angel
Living my life on devil's time

I want to feel I′ve got a purpose when I wake up now
I′m not as tragic as I look, am I?
Come on and make me laugh a little more before I fly
Give me time that used to be so kind
Give me time, don't let the ghost in my eyes


Somewhere in the conversation
You told me you lost your sister and ma
I tell you there′s no explanation
No comfort to call, but look what you are
You know you really are so beautiful when you laugh it off
You make me feel like there's a cure for the cause

Come on, I′ll make you laugh a little more before I fly
Give me time that used to be so kind
Give me time, don't let the ghost in my eyes
Yeah, time comes on like it′s alright
Then it's time that puts the ghost in your eyes

I've seen the world go mad
I′ve made peace with myself
I′ve even loved someone
For all my big bad faults
I'm not about to change this face

Give me time that used to be so kind
Give me time, don′t let the ghost in my eyes
Oh, this time comes on like it's alright
Then it′s time that puts the ghost in your eyes

Somewhere in the conversation
Someone got high
