Don't talk to her when shooting stars are falling
|
Don't talk to her when she can smell the jasmine in the air
|
Don't talk to her when no one knows you're calling
|
You might just say the words that keep her waiting there
|
|
Don't talk to her when she is softly sleeping
|
Don't wake her to the sound of your voice whispering her name
|
Don't tell her all the secrets you've heen keeping
|
Don't tell her that you're drowning in a river of shame
|
|
When the wolf is howling
|
Underneath the moon
|
Underneath the window
|
Of a hotel room
|
Burn the blanket
|
Shoot the light
|
But don't talk to her at night
|
|
Don't talk to her in thunder or in lightning
|
Don't talk to her with fuses blown and wires falling down
|
Don't talk to her when the fever is frightening
|
When she's burning in the bedroom in an evening gown
|
|
Or when the wolf is howling
|
Undernearh the moon
|
Underneath the window
|
Of a hotel room
|
Burn the blanket
|
Shoot the light
|
But don't talk to her at night
|
Don't talk to her at night
|

Don't Talk To Her At Night
