More Than A Whisper Lyrics - Griffith Nanci

Oh, I wish that you would call 

We have not spoken since last fall 

That smoky conversation's coming home 

Do I just read between your lines 

Yeah it could be this winter wine 

So sweet upon my tongue tonight 

It recalls your tender eyes 

And I need more than a whisper 

So much more than a whisper 

It takes more than a whisper 

To wake this weary fool 

Oh give me more than a whisper 

If you're saying I love you 

'cause it's the whispers that I've never understood 

And it's snowing up in the northlands 

I read your warm words from the plains 

While the poets say that I should never 

Be thinking of you this way 

They say that I misread your lines 

Because I've been lonely all my life 

And I'd be reaching for some silver 

And leave my heart out in the fire 

And I need more than a whisper 

So much more than a whisper 

It takes more than a whisper 

To wake this weary fool 

Oh give me more than a whisper 

If you're saying I love you 

'cause it's the whispers that I've never understood 

Well I will drink my winter wine 

When I get home I'll change my life 

I'll only whisper that I love you 

In those smoky bars at night 

And though the poets say I'm lonely 

There's still this woman here inside 

And I've never been a fool 

When my heart was on the line 

'cause I need more than a whisper 

So much more than a whisper 

It takes more than a whisper 

To wake this weary fool 

Oh give me more than a whisper 

If you're saying I love you 

'cause it's the whispers that I've never understood
