Lektion 1: Nothing You May Say
1. Tekst
1. Nothing you may say,
Nothing you present me,
Ev‟ry word, ev‟ry smile.
Ev‟ry little no,
Ev‟ry new rejection,
When you laugh, when you lecture.
Chorus Nothing you may say,
Can hold me back,
From your loving arms,
When you are here,
Close to me,
Even if you won‟t,
Even if you won‟t.
2. The raindrops on your chin,
Your hair when you are sleeping,
Let alone, you‟re still with me.
Each and ev‟ry no,
Turns to sympathy,
In your mouth, yes in your mouth.
3. A bird with clipped wings,
Longing for the heavens,
Like a fox in a trap,
Fighting to escape,
Bloody and forsaken,
I‟m your prey, I‟m your love!
