Jon Anderson - Quick Words (Talk-Talk) lyrics

rate me

Sixteen, sixteen<br />

Going on thirty-two<br />

It's a delicate time<br />

That of knowing<br />

Yet understanding nothing<br />

Then being alone<br />

Twenty-one<br />

Be no clearer yet<br />

Yet the first steps<br />

Looking for the mystery school<br />

Talk, talk is easy<br />

Talk talk whatever it takes to know that<br />

Talk, talk is crazy<br />

Only can you be alive from looking within<br />

Your heart and soul<br />

Talk, talk is easy<br />

Easily we get to coming<br />

Easily we get to knowing<br />

Quick words<br />

Sharp tongue<br />

Fascinate<br />

Aglow<br />

Bright sky<br />

Quick words<br />

See how<br />

We fly<br />

This storm<br />

This love<br />

Electrify<br />

Quick words<br />

We surely testify<br />

Quick words, quick words<br />

Quick words, quick words<br />

Eighteen, eighteen, age of innocence<br />

Thrown away to the wind<br />

Just like a pilgrim<br />

Twenty-one, be the key of life<br />

Realizing how it suddenly is delivered<br />

Shall we play the game, I ask,<br />

I'm willing to learn<br />

Teach me of this wilderness easily<br />

Walk me high as I walked the mountain<br />

Hand in hand in mystery light<br />

Afraid of nothing, nothing can touch me<br />

Never speak to me<br />

I'd be the dumb one of dreams<br />

Made passive by this searching for wonder<br />

It abounds all around the screens<br />

It procreates this very day<br />

I'm astounded that I didn't know<br />

Talk, talk is crazy<br />

Talk talk whatever it takes to know that<br />

Talk, talk is crazy<br />

Only can you come alive from looking within<br />

Your heart and soul<br />

Talk, talk is easy<br />

Easily we get to coming<br />

Easily we get to knowing<br />

Talk to me so clear<br />

This bulge in our open space<br />

Is dreaming by the spell by my seeing<br />

Tis the sound of thunder makes me cry<br />

I believe I'd laugh
