Don’t Talk (MTV Unplugged)

[Verse 1]
Don't talk, I will listen
Don't talk, you keep your distance
Oh, I'd rather hear some truth tonight
Than entertain your lies
Take your poison silently, my
Let me be, let me close my eyes

[Verse 2]
Don't talk, I'll believe it
Don't talk, listen to me instead
I know that if you think of it
Both long enough and hard
It's the drink you drown your troubles in
There is the trouble that you're in now

[Chorus]
You talk, talk, talk about it
Talk as if you care
But when your talk is over
You tilt that bottle in the air
Tossing back more than your share

[Verse 3]
Don't talk, I can guess it
Don't talk, well, now you're restless
And you need somewhere to put the blame
For how you feel inside
You'll look for a close and easy mark
And then you'll see me as your fair game

[Chorus]
Then you talk, talk, talk about it
You talk as if you care
When your talk is over
You tilt that bottle in the air
Tossing back more than your share
You talk, talk, talk about it
Talk as if you care
I'm marking every word
And I can tell this time for sure
Your talk is the finest I have heard

[Verse 4]
So don't talk, I was sleeping
Don't talk, let me go on dreaming
How your eyes glow so fiercely
I can tell that you're inspired
By the name you just chose for me now
What was it? Oh, never mind it

[Chorus]
We will talk, talk, talk about this
When your head is clear
Yes, I'll discuss this in the morning
But until then
Then you may talk, but I won't hear

[Spoken]
Thank you
