LET'S TALK ABOUT US©
Live 18 Sep 1982 version
We talked about the birdies
Flyin' up in the trees
We talked about the moon up there
And the stars we'll never see
But you keep on pretending
You don't know what's wrong with me
Come on, let's talk, about us
We talked about the good times
That made us laugh and sigh
We talked about the bad times, ah honey
That brought tears to my eye
We talked about how I think, ah little honey
It's time for you to realize
Come on, let's talk, about us
Well, honey, I swear to love you, 'til the very end
But I ain't plannin' on stickin' around
If it's just to be your friend
We've talked, and talked, and talked, and talked
But there's been nothing said
The things that you've been talking about
Just don't stick to my head
Sometimes, little girl, I think
Your heart is filled with lead
Come on, let's talk, about us
Yeah, yeah
Well, honey, I swear to love you, ah 'til the very end
But I ain't plannin' on stickin' around
If it's just to be your friend
We've talked, and talked, and talked, and talked
But there's been nothing said
The things that you've been talking about
Just don't stick to my head
Sometimes, little girl, I think
Your heart is filled with lead
Come on, let's talk, about us
Yeah, come on, come on, come on, let's talk about us
Yeah, come on let's talk, come on let's talk about us
Yeah, come on, let's talk, about us
