Lyrics
ONE WAY CONVERSATION w/m Rae Welch copyright 2005
Verse:
This morning at the table
Her silence was the only thing I heard
My coffee cup became the center
Of my ever downward spinning world
I tried a little conversation
But the words just rattled off the walls and died
I knew she wouldn't listen to
What I had to say but I still tried
Chorus:
Please don't just get up off your chair
Leave me sitting here
Without an explanation
Look straight ahead and walk away
Without a single thing to say
And leave me in this one way conversation
Don't leave me in this one way conversation
Verse:
I waited for an answer
She got up slowly, pushing back her chair
And stood there for the longest time
I swear I've never felt a colder stare
She packed some things, walked out the door
The silence that was there before returned
I shouted at my coffee cup
Is this all my loving her has earned
Chorus:
She can't just get up off her chair
Leave me sitting here
Without an explanation
Look straight ahead and walk away
Without a single thing to say
And leave me in this one way conversation
Leave me in this one way conversation
Tag:
Then underneath her coffee cup
I saw the note, picked it up and read
...Her...one way conversation
