| You told me today what I should have known then
 | 
| Now that I know, will you leave me again?
 | 
| I’ve been travelling around to make time go away
 | 
| But something just lingers, something just stays
 | 
| And everyone’s talking these days
 | 
| Like there’s something to prove
 | 
| Though there’s nothing to say
 | 
| Everyone’s talking but you
 | 
| 'cause your words don’t come cheap
 | 
| And your thoughts are of use
 | 
| Remember the time when you & John left the room
 | 
| You skied on the lake in the light of the moon
 | 
| Nobody knew until John passed away
 | 
| But you saw he was sick and you lit up his face
 | 
| And everyone’s wondering these days
 | 
| If life is a loan
 | 
| And if love is for sale
 | 
| Everone’s wondering but you
 | 
| 'cause you rip off the tags
 | 
| And you don’t care if it’s new
 | 
| And you don’t mind the price
 | 
| Or the market value
 | 
| So baby come over, 'cause this time I’m sure
 | 
| Bet you’ll laugh at my jokes like you used to before
 | 
| I’ve been trying to stop thinking, but man, it’s been hard
 | 
| If we lower the stakes I might let down my guard
 | 
| And everyone’s talking these days
 | 
| On how life should be led
 | 
| And how love should be made
 | 
| Now, let’s leave the talking alone
 | 
| Fall asleep in my arms
 | 
| I’ll be watching the door
 | 
| And everyone’s talking these days
 | 
| So let us be quiet
 | 
| And let us be safe
 | 
| Let’s leave the talking alone
 | 
| Fall asleep in my arms
 | 
| I’ll be watching the door
 | 
| And I won’t be running away anymor |
