Lyrics Teach Me a New Language - Van Hunt

No one can hold you
Like I, like I do, oh
No one else would, ah
Follow, follow the clues
They see your
Bright colors
They hear your
Bells and whistles
What will they do
When you
Strike a knife

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verb in the way
Ooh, ooh
Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verb
A slip of the tongue is felt
But never heard

Oh!

I'm just trying to catch the beat
But I'm coming up short
If I'm stepping on your feet
Don't blame it on my heart, babe
There's no figure of speech
That could say it for me
I just don't know how to speak
To a body that moves like yours
Yours, yours

Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verbs in the way
Ooh, ooh
Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verb
A slip of the tongue is felt, but never heard

No one else would ever take a closer look
They want you to read just like a token book
Ever since you danced into view

I've been trying to catch the beat
But I'm coming up short
If I'm stepping on your feet
Don't blame it on my heart, babe
There's no figure of speech
That could say it for me
I just don't know how to speak
To a body that moves like yours
Yours, yours

Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verb in the way
Ooh, ooh
Teach me a new language
A world without words
No noun or verb
A slip of the tongue is felt, but never heard
Felt, but never heard
Felt, but never heard

Ah, hey
Hey, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, hey
Hey, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, hey
Hey, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, hey
Hey, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
