paroles de chanson What You Mean to Say - Mike Donehey

I need to shut up sometimes
And listen to you
Even when you′re feeling tongue-tied
And you're fumbling through
Words sound so different in our minds
How do they sound to you?
Ooh

I wonder what you′ll find
If I learn to give you the time

To say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you want me to know
Come on and say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you gotta let go
Oh, oh, yeah

I know I haven't always
Let you be free
To say whatever's on your heart
Without feeling defeat
I tend to spin the story
In ways you don′t mean
It′s true

I'll bite my tongue this time
Your words don′t have to come out right

Yeah, you can say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you want me to know
Come on and say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you gotta let go
Oh

Oh, I'm learning to trust you, darlin′
When the gloves come off
I will listen without defending
Our love's our only ground
I wonder how the story will sound

When you can say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you want me to know
Yeah, you can say what you mean to say
What you need to say
What you gotta let go
Oh, oh
