There's a rumor going around that you want me.
Darling do you know if it is true?
There's a rumor going around that you love me.
Darling do you?
I heard talk on the street you could do better
Darling have you heard the same?
I heard somebody saying he loved you
And forgot my name.
Ch.
These days the only voices sounding
And saying, proclaiming, talking around me.
Are the ones not from your mouth.
There are so many things I want you to say
So many times you could put me back in place.
So darling let those words come out.
There's a glimmer of hope things are not worse.
That the cons are outweighed by the pros.
But I tend to trap myself in verse
And invent things that nobody knows.
There's that sparkle in your smile that always shines.
A positive portcullis to protect
Those sensitive thoughts that start in your heart
To be trapped by your mouth and stuck in your neck.
Ch.
Br.
Darling the syllables are transpositions
I can only imagine you squirming
Around on your couch as your name gets pronounced
And mid-frequencies leave your ears burning...
Darling, let those words come out.

What are we doing in love?
Sometimes I feel like we just wandered here, sat down, and now it's hard to get up.
There's no one more beautiful than you are when you're smiling
And no one who makes my heart beat like you do when you're beside me
But when the whole damn continent gets in our way
I begin to understand the reasons why we'd say:
What are we doing in love?
I want to be with you and only you but sometimes enough is enough
There's no place else I'd rather be than with you in the San Francisco winter sun
And there's no brutal wind or layered fog that would make me wish we were done
But when our words can no longer perform their simple tasks
I begin to understand the reasons why we'd ask:
What are we doing in love?
I'm not saying that I want to leave, but how much longer can this really go on?
