More Than A Whisper |
| How I wish that you would call… we have not spoken since last fall |
| Now that smokey conversation’s come and gone |
| Do I just read between your line? |
| Or could it be this winter wine… so sweet upon my tongue tonight |
| Recalls your tender eyes |
| O, I need more than a whisper… so much more than a whisper |
| It takes more than a whisper to wake this weary fool |
| Give me more than a whisper… if you’re sayin’I love you |
| 'cuz it’s the whispers I have never understood |
| It’s snowin’up in the northlands… I read your warm words from the plains |
| While the poets say that I should never be thinkin’of you this way |
| They say that I misread your lines 'cuz I’ve been lonely all my life |
| And here I’m reachin’for some silver and leavin’my heart out in the fire |
| I will drink my winter wine… when I get home I’ll change my mind |
| I’ll only whisper that I love you in those smokey bars at night |
| And though the poets say I’m lonely… there’s still this woman here inside |
| And I’ve never been a fool when my heart was on the line |
