Testo Speaking A Dead Language

(by Joy Williams & Jeremy Bose)

We built a tall, tall tower
towards the sun, towards the sun
took some words and built a wall
between our love, between our love

And somewhere in all the talking the meaning faded out

Oh I wonder
when did it all stop making sense
I don't understand
cuz I remember
we were so sure, so innocent
o but that was then
can we ever go back again
can we ever go back again

Speaking a dead, dead language
you don't sound like yourself
I hope it's just lost in translation
why don't you show, don't try to tell
brick by brick we started crumbling
if we don't stop, it's gonna fall

Oh I wonder
when did it all stop making sense
I don't understand
cuz I remember
we were so sure, so innocent
o but that was then
can we ever go back again
can we ever go back again

hold your breath
look around
try to add it up
pin it down
but you can't

Oh I wonder
when did it all stop making sense
I don't understand
cuz I remember
we were so sure, so innocent
o but that was then
can we ever go back again
can we ever go back again
