Concrete Blonde - Little Conversations lyrics

The little conversation<br>Is over very soon<br>And I watch in admiration<br>From my corner of the room.<br>They shine on you with starry eyes...<br>They rain a friendly storm.<br>Like kids around a christmas tree<br>And then you smile all nice and warm<br><br>The little conversations<br>If I tried my very best<br>You know I never could say anything<br>In twenty words or less.<br>Somewhere, sometime, down the line<br>Someday I may confess,<br>And spill it all. that's all<br><br>The little conversations<br>On me are very rough<br>They leave me all in pieces<br>You know there's never time enough<br>Like a book with missing pages<br>Like a story incomplete<br>Like a painting left unfinished<br>It feels like not enough to eat.<br>Starvin'<br><br>These little conversations<br>Well for me they'll never do<br>Now what am I supposed to do with<br>Broken sentences of you? <br>I'll stay in my corner `cause<br>That's all that I can do<br>And let the others speak for me.<br>Little conversations<br>Are we.
