Speak to Me - Michael Franks

From the Towers of Babylon

The beat goes on-

All voices of the insincere

Confusion is middle C

Your frequency is what I need to hear

Why won’t you speak to me?

Show me some affection

Give me some direction

Lead me to your love?

Just speak to me-

Don’t torture me with silence

Solitude’s a science

I would rather not learn

For you I would lose my heart

How can you refuse my heart?

Legend says Michelangelo

Was moved to throw

His hammer at the statue’s knee

Resembling flesh and bone

Its mouth of stone

Was quiet company
