One Way Conversation Songtext
von Gary Louris

As I sit in silence listening to the space
The space that has no edges, not a trace
Give me a sign, give me a sign
Just one single conversation face-to-face
In that one defining moment
Will I stand or will I fall?
I′d like to think that we would
Would have made it after all
Once again I substitute you for the truth
And I lean upon the crutch that I call you
Lost in the waves, lost in the waves
In a string of long forgotten yesterdays
And the last thing I remember
There was ringing in my ears


And I closed my eyes in wonder
And it all just disappeared
A Salvation Army blanket kept us warm
Though the cloth was thin and every corner worn
In that one defining moment
Will I stand or will I fall?
I'd like to think that we would
Would have made it after all
It′s a one-way conversation
Just a one-way conversation
It's a one-way conversation
Just a one-way conversation
It's a one-way conversation
Just a one-way conversation
