Rustic Overtones - Pink Belly lyrics

It's crossed my mind to cross my heart and whisper faintly

"Whatever lake, whatever pond, whatever ocean I'm on

I'm out over my head in love with you"

Do you love me, too?

I'm counting on it to be true

I won't change my tune, and I'll sing it out to you

for no other girl will I ever swoon

because my heart's filled up and I haven't any room

What is the value of a lover that just walks away?

I swear I'll never fail you, just don't fail me

and we'll be O.K.

If we whisper real softly they can't hear a word that they say

Lovers may quarrel themselves into sorrow

but me, I haven't a care

for I forget all my problems when I run my hands through you0r hair

confidentially, I never loved someone like you before

and I said if I did you wouldn't walk out that door

a joyful bird sings a sad melody from a big empty nest in a big empty tree

What is the value of a lover that just walks away?

I swear I'll never fail you, just don't fail me

and we'll be O.K.

If we whisper real softly they can't hear a word that we say

The feeling I get is everyone's passion is dead

and the dreams that we had were replaced by demons instead

they listened real close and they heard every word that we said

I tip the rim of my hat, I cross fingers behind my back that it's not all grim

as that

and we can love this way

All I want to do is say I love oyu to the people that spit in my face
