When I talk to you

I hereby vow

That nothing matters more

No way, no how

Whatever's going on

Can be postponed

'Cause when I talk to you

I'm yours alone.

The spinning of my wheels

Seldom deigns to cease

The chatter in my head

Abides no peace

The thousand tiny threads

I dare not let go

I'm never where I am

I'm somewhere I dunno.

But when I talk to you

I'm here and now

And nothing matters more

No way, no how

Whatever's going on

Can be postponed

'Cause when I talk to you

I'm yours alone.

All we get is this slender sliver of time

And where on earth could I better spend

These few precious moments of mine?

It's mirrors otherwise

With a dash of smoke

A strategy deployed

In a hail of jokes.

Magicians only show

What they mean to show

But when it's you and me

I let the rabbit go.

When I talk to you

My solemn vow

Is nothing matters more

No way, no how

Whatever's going on

Can be postponed

'Cause when I talk to you

I'm yours alone.

'Cause when I talk to you

I swear it’s true

There’s nothing on my mind

Except for you

And nothing in my life

So dear and sweet

As each and every

Time you talk to me.
