Staring at each other with accusing
eyes Keep our voices low, don't act surprised If the word gets out, yeah,
that's alright
I know you're just looking for some sympathy But listen
you don't know how it gets back to me You're getting reckless, girl, but
that's alright
Now don't you know that one cold word is going to lead to
another And then we'll have nowhere to go
Even if heaven and earth
collide tonight We'll be all alone in a different light I don't care what
the world can't see It's just between you and me
I see telltale signs
of a love in decline There should be something to say, but we don't take the
time And I don't understand, but that's alright
Now you can turn the
page or you can tear me apart Don't make an open book out of my private
heart You should know better now, but that's alright
Don't you know
that one cold word is going to lead to another And then we'll have nowhere
to go
Chorus: Even if heaven and earth collide tonight We'll be
all alone in a different light I don't care what the world can
see Because it's just between you and me
If we don't work this out we
won't recover We'll lose this soulful love for one another But with all
I've heard and all I seen I'm still lost in your mystery
Staring at
each other with accusing eyes Keep our voices low, don't act surprised If
the word gets out, yeah, that's alright
Don't you know that one cold word
is going to lead to another And then we'll have nowhere to go
