New Language Lyrics - Pursuit Of Happiness

Don't make me speak in a new language 

Just let me tell you the way that I feel about you 

I sure don't want to offend anyone 

But if you take away my words how can I tell you the truth 

An old-fashioned boy and a modern girl 

And the way that we talk turns our heasds around 

Your passion is real when I'm in your arms 

But when you speak it gets watered down 

I know I'm not very articulate 

I can't express myself innocuously 

But what I say - it comes from the heart 

Must you distort the real meaning 

[Chorus] 

I know it's been said that talk is cheap 

But we know the power it really has 

Must it be rigid and so benign 

Can't it be free and efficacious 

[Chorus]
