The day drags like a dead thing

So the night is for mending

Baby, I hold your hand

Not everybody understands us

There was a tongue that we speak in

No one else got the meaning

But baby, I have

Not everybody understands us

Cause sometimes my heart hurts to watch you

There's a blind spot that I can't but get to

Sometimes you seem like a lost cause

Breathe a second, feel that pregnant pause

Speak to me in our tongue

When all the other words only come out wrong

Speak to me in our tongue-

The pillow talk patois from a land long gone

Sometimes you seem like a lost cause

Breathe a second, feel that pregnant...
