Talk the Talk
James Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We were more than sweethearts,
It's so hard to understand.
Don't know why it happened,
Don't know how it started,
Why should we be strangers,
After all we planned.
I can't show my face,
Can't go anyplace,
People stop an' stare,
It's so hard to bear,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town
Every time we meet,
My heart skips a beat,
We don't stop to speak,
'Though it's just a week,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town
We send out invitations,
To friends and relations,
Announcing our weddin' day
Friends and our relations,
Gave congratulations,
How can you face them?
What can you say?
Let's make up sweetheart,
We can't stay apart,
Don't let foolish pride,
Keep you from my side,
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town
How can you face them?
What can you say?
Let's make up sweetheart,
We can't stay apart,
Don't let foolish pride,
Keep you from my side,
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town, hm
It's the talk of the town.
James Smith's "Talk the Talk" is a song about two former lovers who are now strangers due to an unexplained incident that ended their relationship. The lyrics express the pain and discomfort that come with being the talk of the town after a public breakup. The singer feels embarrassed and humiliated by the constant reminders of their break up. He misses his former lover and the life they planned together, and he struggles to come to terms with the fact that they are now strangers. The lyrics suggest that the singer still loves his former lover and that he wants to reconcile, but he fears that his pride is preventing them from getting back together.
