Old 97s - What We Talk About lyrics

Well the hour is late for a visit on a whim

Well the hour is late for a quiet drunken talk

I don't begrudge you the anger in your voice

No I don't begrudge you anything at all

'Cause I know...that the time is scarce in Laredo with your friends

Your on hoiday, on a bender, in a daze

You find all nite food in a diner full of noise

Where the bad mood walks like ants across your plates

Chorus:

'Cause I know what this is

This is what we talk about

When we talk about love

When we talk about love

Yeah I know what this is

This is what we talk about

When we talk about love

When we talk about love

Well the city lights are on fuses that have blown

So the city sleeps, 'cause there's nothin else to do

Well the couch is deep and the phone receiver's warm

I miss you much too badly to convey to you

Repeat Chorus
