Speak to me with tenderness
Speak to me with gracefulness
Speak to me with happiness and love

Speak to me in loneliness
Speak to me in bitterness
Speak to me in faithlessness with love

You want to hide when you're alone
Where do you run to when you're on your own
You're looking to find some peace of mind
But nothing is in sight at the end of the line, oh no

Speak to me in emptiness
Speak to me in failed success
Speak to me in speechlessness with love

You want to hide when you're alone
Where do you run to when everything's gone
You're looking to find a good thing in life
But nothing's in sight at the end of the line

So where do you hide when you're alone
Where do you run to when you're on your own
That dream in the dark just sank like a stone
That voice in your heart
It won't come to the phone
It never comes
Speak to me with tenderness
Speak to me with gracefulness
Speak to me with happiness and love

Speak to me in loneliness
Speak to me in bitterness
Speak to me in faithlessness with love
