Words Not Spoken

from Pitiful Blues by Malcolm Holcombe

lyrics

words not spoken

the sound was familiar recollectin' we met
a voice so sweet may i never forget
reckon a companion for a night or two
for a runaway drunkard too many too few

satisfaction comes and it goes in a whisper
restin' deep in the winter listenin'

chorus
my cousin knows words not spoken
stick down in your throat and wont go away
my cousin knows childhood sufferin'
when innocence dies in front of you

ten years snapped by broken hearts are scattered
to the four blowin' winds in a mind dont matter
if i hear i forget if i do please remember
your voice so sweet in the moment we met

chorus

if i hear i forget if i do please remember
your voice so sweet in the moment we met

chorus
chorus
