Way With Words Songtext / Lyric

You don't have to raise your voice every time you talk

I don't hear you screaming down the phone

You ain't no drama queen, you don't make a scene

You don't need no fire or brimstone



You don't have to lose it just to make your presence felt

I've often wondered what it must be like

Without my disposition, if I could only listen

To your sweet words whenever lightning strikes



You got a way with words, you smooth away the anger

You got a way with words when you comfort me

You don't have to shout, it always works out

You got a way with words, calm on a restless sea






Patience is a virtue, vengeance is a vice

I never seem to reconcile the two

I got this restless soul and it's dragging you over the coals

You know I'd be lost if it wasn't for you



You got a way with words, you soothe away the anger

You got a way with words when you comfort me

You don't have to shout, it always works out

You got a way with words, calm on a restless sea



I can get myself hung with one little slip of the tongue

I can put my foot right in my mouth

I don't know how you do it, I know I always blew it

Every time I'd sit with you and try to work things out



You don't force your opinions down other people's throat

That ain't in your personality

You only gotta whisper and everyone gets the picture

I think it's fair to say, we all agree



That you got a way with words, you rock me just like a lullaby

You got a way with words, it's extraordinary

You never shout, you just let them slip out

You got a way with words, calm on a restless sea
