Hear me now, oh hear me now
I'm trying to get to you
To you, my dear
Even though I know you're busy working like a dog
You do, my dear

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
An eye for an eye and there'll be nothing left to see
It all sounds nice but

Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Talk to me

Hear me now, ooh hear me now
I'm trying to get to you
To you, my dear
Fear is how we end up fighting
I just need to talk to you, my dear

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
An eye for an eye and there'll be nothing left to see
It all sounds nice but

Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk
Talk to me
Play with open cards
Don't leave me in the dark
Say what's on your mind
Let's see what we can find

Play with open cards
Don't leave me in the dark

Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk to me
Why don't you talk
Talk to me

Hold me now
You know we can work it out
Hold me now
There's better days ahead
Hold me now
You know we can work it out
One word can change the world

Hold me now
You know we can work it out
Hold me now
There's better days ahead
Hold me now
You know we can work it out
One word can change the world
