[Verse 1]

What would you have me ask?

What would you have me do?

Beacon of my love

I've come straight to you

Now, would you tell me how

I'm in a different tale?

Somewhere along the line

Must've lost the trail

[Pre-Chorus]

I could say that I want it

I could see where it leads

It's not what you hear

Coming down the street

[Chorus]

Word's out

Come on, live right

[Verse 2]

Now that the word is out

Is your tongue in a curl?

Beacon of my love

Won't you help me, girl?

Don't you remember how

We were in the same tale?

Somehow the plot got lost

And we're off the rails

[Pre-Chorus]

You could do what you wanted

You could see to your needs

I'm starting to feel

Something's incomplete

[Chorus]

Word's out

Come on, live right

Word's out

Come on, live right

[Bridge]

[Pre-Chorus]

I could say that I want it

I could see where it leads

It's not what you hear

Coming down the street

[Chorus]

Word's out

Come on, live right

Word's out

Come on, live right

[Outro]

Word's out

Word's out

Word's out

Word's out
