Talking with my hands again
To hide that I'm speaking in tongues
And we're spending time in separate beds
Like your parents did when you were young
You can't forgive if you only forget
I can't remember anything you said
Talking with my hands again
I'm keeping them to myself
Because I've grown far too disengaged
To admit that I'm down for the count
Time won't tell when time is wearing thin
You keep me safe where I have never been
Slow but sure
You never were
One to admit or assure
Placing bets on what our words are worth
Yeah, I'm always coming up short
All the folks move from my rural state of mind
For Heaven's sake I try to stay alive
Talking with my hands again
To hide that I'm speaking in tongues
And we're spending time in separate beds
Like your parents did when you were young
You can't forgive if you only forget
I can't remember anything you said
