Lace - He Can't Talk Without His Hands lyrics

rate me

(Giselle Brohman/Jason Barry) There's a little two-room house just outside of town With a little picket fence and the blinds pulled down A wife with two young kids She sees them off to bed As she waits for her husband to come home Lately she's been doing a lot of thinking About the arguments and why she's hurting Is it worth the extra mile To hang on for a little while When she's had all the heartache she can stand And her mama's words still echo in her head Girl, he can't talk without his hands What's made you stay this long I don't understand If you leave now you might still have a chance 'Cause girl, he can't talk without his hands There's a little two-room house just a few miles down The little girl's grown up and she's married now Tears on a window pane With a baby on the way As she waits for her husband to come home She calls her mama up on the telephone She says it's getting dark and I'm all alone Can we talk for a little while Mama says what's the matter child But she knows that her baby's been misled And her mama's words still echo in her head She said, girl, he can't talk without his hands What's made you stay this long I don't understand If you leave now you might still have a chance 'Cause girl, he can't talk without his hands
