Hey, how are you? How’ve you been?
I never thought I’d hear your voice again
I’m not here to place the blame
But clearly you cannot recall my name
​
Let’s get down to it
Was it something I said?
I think I blew it
I should’ve shut up instead
​
Why don’t we talk?
Open up a dialogue and talk
Interact in analog and talk
The way we did when we were growin’ up
The way we did when we were growin’ up
​
We used to be inseparable
The bond we had was undeniable
It comes but once in a blue moon
But tragically it petered out too soon
​
Let’s get right to it
I’ll take my share of the blame
If we get through this
I promise you I can change
I can change
​
Why don’t we talk?
Open up a dialogue and talk
Interact in analog and talk
Find a way to get along and talk
I want to know what’s going on
​
I’ve got so much to say
My thumbs just get in the way
But every word that I choose
Is one more weapon you can use
​
Why don’t we talk?
Damn the awkward silences and talk?
Tick away the hours on the clock?
Go outside and maybe take a walk?
What could happen if we were to talk?
​
All I want to do is have a word with you
All I want to do is have a word with you
The way we did when we were growing up
The way we did when we were growing up
