lyrics

Whoa

Why won't you talk to me?
Is it something that I said, love?
It couldn't be 'cause we haven't spoken in a couple weeks
And the last time that we did it went fine so I know that you're not mad at me

But your silence frightens me
Wisest person says nothing
Are you wise? Are you tryna' keep your distance?
Is something wrong? I don't know because you seem to drift away every time I try to ask you something

Things aren't what they used to be between us
For the life of me I can't figure out why
And I'm sorry if I'm overstepping but it hurts me when you shut me out so…

…Talk talk talk talk to me and tell me what you're feeling
Cause I can't read your mind, and I'm worried about you
Talk talk talk talk to me, so I can give you space
And know that come tomorrow everything is gonna be okay

Whoa

I watch you waste away
And I don't know how I can help you
Apart from lis'ning to the story you won't tell me
And I'll keep my two cents to myself, save 'em up if you
Just want to vent to me
But you gotta give me something
I know you're in there somewhere hiding from the madness
And you're afraid of getting caught up in the moment and burning the bridge we built together

And I've been in that same place before, my friend
God knows my emotions overtake my brain sometimes
But it's worth the risk of failure because it shows me that you care enough to…

Talk talk talk talk to me and tell me what you're feeling
Cause I can't read your mind, and I'm worried about you
Talk talk talk talk to me, so I can give you space
And know that come tomorrow everything is gonna be okay

I don't know how long I can hold out being kept out in the dark and left on read
(I don't like feeling vulnerable)
But I always let my guard down when you walk into the room
It's cause I want you to trust me like I trust you

I'm scared to death of the way you've changed
Since the day I first met you
I've lost a lot of friends this year
You're the one that I can't lose

Talk talk talk talk to me and tell me what you're feeling
Cause I can't read your mind, and I'm worried about you
Talk talk talk talk to me, so I can give you space
And know that come tomorrow everything is gonna be okay
