Incommunicado

I wish the words would fail me just for once (Just once) Keep in incommunicado (You don't say a word) Look for the present tense And come to my senses (Come pick me up) Just like a despera-a-ado (A-a-ado) I talked for twenty minutes By the time the party ended you'd forgotten I'm still thinking about it Five years later You spoke an unfamiliar dialect (Comme ca?) Two and a half months over (Over) Next think I knew someone had called for the check (Check please) And you were gone before I turned it over I dreamed we were alone all night In a house made out of beds And nothing happened I think about it every time I see you That's when I try to remember There were never any terms we could agree to Now can I please have a moment of your time? (Can I please have a moment of your time?) For I have the strength to change my mind (Read my mind)
