Much Have Been Said
Beres Hammond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah baby we've been through so much
Much have been said, about you and me baby
I think it's time to prove them wrong now
All that love and all of that affection now
Can't you see that we've got it going on

[Chorus]
But if you could give in ya baby
To all that careless whisper
You would be drowning in pain
Deep in pain deeper and deeper
You'll be hurting especially at night
And I'll be sorry we couldn't get it right
We'll be lonely living two separate lives
Don't make it too long before we realize

A fish for you girl and a little one for me baby
That's how I think it should always be
But folks around they don't seem
To like a good living no so with their tricks
They try to come between

[Chorus (repeat)]
But if you should say yes
To every time they complain
Your poor heart could know
The measure of pain
You'll be hurting especially at night
And I'll be sorry we couldn't make it right
We'll be lonely living two separate lives
Don't make it too long before we realize
Don't listen to words that they got to say
They are lies they are lies
Don't get caught up now

Oh you got me smoking
Girl you got me thinking
Wondering if you doint the same
I feel a little shaking
Oh I feel a little nervous
I also know you don't want it to end





[Chorus...]
