Lyrics
I don't know what to say, you just won't believe me,
I try to explain it, you can't hear at all.
There's something blocking, the wavelength I'm using,
Been over and over it, my voice starts to falter.
It's the way I feel when I can't get through, to you;
Makes me think there's something wrong between, me and you,
The two of us ... we just don't talk any more.
I can tell when you're mad, you start to complaining,
When both of us know that, nothing is wrong.
It's only this feeling, and I think you've made it,
You've got to stop worrying, you take me along with you.
It's the way I feel when I can't get through ...
We had a way to communicate, without even speaking,
No way to explain what was on in your mind.
But the channel's been broken, no way to repair it,
I think you're planning to leave me behind.
It's the way I feel when I can't get through ...
