Sunburst Tongue

I see you walking by the garden gate

I rehearse the words but I'm always too late

My hands are shaking and my throat goes dry

You say hello and I just pass on by Why is it

so hard to just speak my mind?

(why is it so hard)

I've got a pocket full of words that I never say

Spinning in my head every single day I want to tell you

how I feel but I freeze in place

Lost inside the crowded space (oh-oh-oh)

I write a text and then I press erase

I'm so impatient but I slow my pace

I make a joke but it just falls so flat

Why do I always have to act like that?

I've got a pocket full of words that I never say Spinning

in my head every single day I want to tell you how

I feel but I freeze in place

Lost inside the crowded space (oh-oh-oh)

Maybe tomorrow I'll find the nerve

To give you the answers that you deserve

But for tonight I'm just standing near

(hoping you hear) Still got a pocket full of words...

Maybe next time (yeah)
