A Smile In A Whisper

Fairground Attraction

Sky with some diamond stars


Empty streets with just occasional cars


Here we lie in a lullaby of stillness


In our room





Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does


Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does





All of the letters in all of the words


In all of the books all over the world


They're nothing but sounds and vowels and nouns


For talking to strangers, that's all they were





Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does


Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does





Orchestra of tiny hearts


It's like pepper sprinkled on our hearts


We're threading a needle with boxing gloves


When we try and talk about love





Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does


Words are unable to speak of love


like a smile in a whisper does
