THEY SAT AT THE TABLE
POLITE CONVERSATION
AVOIDIN' THE ISSUE
AT HAND
THEN HE MADE
THE COFFEE AND
SHE DID THE DISHES
AND SAT DOWN AT
THE TABLE AGAIN
SHE WAITED A MOMENT
HOPIN' HE WOULD
SPEAK FIRST
THOUGH IT NEVER HAD
HAPPENED BEFORE
HE SAT THERE
IN SILENCE
EXPECTIN' THE WORST
TILL SHE COULDN'T
WAIT ANYMORE
SHE SAID I'M MAD
HE HEARD I'M LEAVIN'
SHE SAID I NEED
YOUR ATTENTION
HE HEARD
I WANT YOU TO CRAWL
SHE SAID I'M SAD
HE HEARD IT'S ALL
YOUR FAULT
THERE IS NO
TRANSLATION
EMOTIONS DON'T FIT
INTO WORDS
THERE'S SO MUCH
BETWEEN
WHAT SHE SAID
AND WHAT HE HEARD
SHE SAID I LOVE YOU
AND THAT'S NOT
THE PROBLEM
AND I KNOW HOW MUCH
YOU CARE
BUT FOR TOO LONG NOW
WE'VE BEEN WALKIN'
ON EGGSHELLS
I JUST HAD TO
CLEAR THE AIR
THEN HE LOOKED AT HER
LIKE SHE WAS SPEAKIN'
CHINESE WITH SOME OF
THE LETTERS LEFT OUT
BUT TRY AS HE MAY
HE JUST DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT SHE WAS
TALKIN' ABOUT
SHE SAID I'M MAD
HE HEARD I'M LEAVIN'
SHE SAID I NEED
YOUR ATTENTION
HE HEARD
I WANT YOU TO CRAWL
SHE SAID I'M SAD
HE HEARD IT'S ALL
YOUR FAULT
THERE IS NO
TRANSLATION
EMOTIONS DON'T FIT
INTO WORDS
THERE'S SO MUCH
BETWEEN
WHAT SHE SAID
AND WHAT HE HEARD
THEN HE STARTED
SMILIN'
AND SHE STARTED
LAUGHIN'
AND THEY BOTH
REACHED OUT
THEIR HANDS
SHE SAID I THINK
WE'RE FROM
TWO DIFFERENT
PLANETS
NO WONDER WE
MISUNDERSTAND
SHE SAID I'M MAD
HE HEARD I'M LEAVIN'
SHE SAID I NEED
YOUR ATTENTION
HE HEARD
I WANT YOU TO CRAWL
SHE SAID I'M SAD
HE HEARD IT'S ALL
YOUR FAULT
THERE IS NO
TRANSLATION
EMOTIONS DON'T FIT
INTO WORDS
THERE'S SO MUCH
BETWEEN
WHAT SHE SAID
AND WHAT HE HEARD
THERE'S SO MUCH
BETWEEN
WHAT SHE SAID
AND WHAT HE HEARD
