Tanita Tikaram - Once And Not Speak lyrics

Or I might just grab your hand

I'm not selfish with my story

I just want something, understand

Oh, this world is not for grieving

It's not grieving for my cry

And I hate this growl inside

And you better believe it when I tell you

That it's all growing

Untill you learn to trust

Well this wash it wasn't easy

No this wash just doesn't dream

It just makes the whole thing cluttered, yes

And when you've seen the sights it's best to scream

I'm not stolen from the souless

I'm just driven to the white

So, you really ought to catch me now

You really ought to join the fight

And if I tell you all my secrets

That you ever wanted to hear - it's

Once and not speak

Once and not speak

Once and not speak

Well, no one wants to play this

Well, no one likes the dark

And we just checked in for higher love

Well, that's another - you like sparks

Well, I'll fly across the evening

Least, I'll smile across the hall to you

But it better not be fascinate

It beter just be wall-to-wall

And if I tell you all my secrets

That you ever wanted to hear - it's

Once and not speak

Once and not speak

Once and not speak

Well, I'm the tired recluse, yes

And I'm tired of this courtyrad

And every grateful day's the herdline

Well, the crafty were just leaving

They've forgotten how to talk

And that slither through the evening

Was just another kind of walk with me

Well, I'll tell you what you wanted

Leat I'll stunt you with my grace

And I know it's all so easy

But I just want to find your face

And if I tell you all my secrets

That you ever wanted to hear - it's

Once and not speak

Once and not speak

Once and not speak
