Fretless Songtext
von R.E.M.

He has got his work and she comes easy
They each come around when the other is gone
Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between
I wouldn′t confide in the prodigal son
The die has been cast, the battle is won
The bullets were blanks, a double up gun
I couldn't admit to a minute of fun
They come and they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tone
No words spoken, no needless gift
Take it, stomp twice, ring the bell, tether that ringing phrase
Enough with the rifle and talk already, we all know what it means
Take this conversation to your great divide
I can only swallow what I ate, and I
Don′t hate him, and I don't hate her
They come and they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tone
No heart broken, no needless gift
Don't talk to me
Don′t talk to me about being alone


Don′t talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don′t talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
Reach for each other before you leave
Reach peace with a E-A-C
Don′t threaten me with a gentle tease
Don't threaten me with angry
Please, please, please don′t try to tell me what I am
They come and they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tone
No words spoken, no needless friendship
Don't talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don′t talk to me
Don′t talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me
Don′t talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me
Don′t talk to me
Talk to me
Don't talk to me
Don′t talk to me
Don't talk to me
Talk to me
Don't talk to me about being alone
