Barry Manilow - Talk To Me lyrics

After it was over,

After the crying and

All the angry shouting

When we've both just given up

And you turned and closed the door

I didn't know what was wrong anymore

Than I did before

Maybe it was over

When you stopped trying

Or when I started doubting

Maybe you don't care enough

Maybe I'm just scared you'll go

But maybe what's really wrong is that

I still don't really know

Talk to me quietly, peacefully

Tell me what to do

Talk to me honestly, don't you see I need to talk to you

I need to hear that we're okay

And say the things I meant to say

So, talk to me before

Before it's really over

When it all was starting

When I first met you

We couldn't keep from talking

I knew everything you felt

And I felt you knew me too

Now I'm talking to myself

Or I'm just yelling back at you

How this could have happened

How I could loose you

Or you could think to leave me

After where we started from

I'm too dumb I guess to see

But you can't go till I do

Any you know you owe that to me

Talk to me quietly, peacefully

I don't want to fight

Talk to me nice and slow

So I'll know how to make it right

I'm not afraid to take the blame

I'm just afraid we'll stay the same

And we won't talk until

Until it's really over

I don't understand why you're always mad

What could I have done?

What could be so bad?

Don't you want to know why I never sleep?

Look what we've become from all these secrets

That we keep

When it's really over

Cause I can't take it

Or you've walked out for the last time

When these years are just a dream

And those tears somehow have dried

I can't wake up in my bed

And regret what we never tried

So, please don't say it's over

Don't even think it

Just think about the good times

Think of all we've got to loose

And not who's done what to who

And when it comes time to choose

Think of who would still die for you

Talk to me quietly, peacefully

Make me understand

Say what you need to say

By the way-take me by the hand

The only thing I ask of you

Is please for once just listen to

And talk to me before

Before it's really over

Talk to me

Before it's really over
