Could we speak a while in confidence? Shall we blaze a trail through common sense? The night ignites dreams of the past The light invites thoughts to move past As the dusk warns me of its coming I'm reminded of the longing Which doesn't spare me my fall I can't get through to you at all Could we lie a while in silence? Or shall we reconvene once we're cleansed of our sins? The comfort of sex seems to be The only escape made available to me As your skin soaks into my skin It seems reason enough to begin again But slowly I recall how I can't get through to you at all Could you whisper another lie to me? Shall we bask in false security? I'd rather play dumb than sleep alone tonight Pretend that I don't know a thing about you and him It's enough to make me shiver Almost enough to make me cry Almost enough to make me call But I can't get through to you at all
