I can, I can only whisper (Whisper)
I can only cry tonight
I wish I was with her
Yeah, we'd be getting by tonight
Instead I'm laying here by myself, yeah
Just thinking 'bout the way that it felt, yeah
She was there when nobody else
Could make out the words in my mouth
I can only whisper (Only, only whisper)
Now I can only cry tonight
I wish I was with her (Only, only, only)
Yeah, we'd be gettin' by tonight
But here, the poet floats in a well, yeah
My words are soakin', coated in braille, yeah
I look up at everyone else, oh yeah
With everything I wish I could yell
I can only whisper (Only, only whisper)
Now I can only cry tonight
I wish I was with her (Only, only, only)
'Cause we'd be gettin' by tonight
I can only whisper (Only whisper)
I can only cry tonight (Cry tonight)
If I could only see you now, I would be kissin' you so sweetly
We'd be gettin' by tonight
