We Used to Talk Songtext

von Hello Stranger

We used to talk
Enough to fill an ocean
Full of sailors who were going
To some undiscovered place
And we talked
About a storm that's growing
But we'd survive it knowing
We'd keep each other safe
Like the waves
That wash away
The footprints on the shore
We used to talk a lot
But we don't talk much anymore
We used to talk
Enough to fill a million books
With page after page
With inspirational thoughts
And we talked
About all the scenarios
Where we could be the heroes
Adventuring evil plots
It's what we don't expect
And what we choose to ignore
We used to talk a lot
But we don't talk much anymore
How long
Can these conversations go wrong
Before the inspiration is gone
Even Atlantis sunk onto the ocean floor
We used to talk a lot
But we don't talk much anymore
We used to talk
Now in a hundred years
We would still be sitting here
Just to chatter in our poems
We're not
I'm sitting here in silence
And though I have tried
It is hard to talk alone
