Short Talks

Neither of us feels good enough for the other / So our talks are short; we have to be somewhere / Fear's at our throats; we'd hate to be a bother / But I might bother her / 'cause she's too considerate to ask me / who I am / What makes my heart swell is that we're both saved by grace and anyone can see that kindness lives on her face / She respects herself / She dresses with taste / I might bother her / I love the near miss when there's almost a spark / the dancing fragrance in the air is her casual remark / But say goodbye now / She has to depart / I might bother her / CHORUS / If I were an animal I'd be a pup, not a puppy / Give me a volleyball, a flat couch, and I'm happy / But we're not animals / It's not nearly so easy / Hits me like a cannonball to the chest when I see you / CHORUS
