Talk
Sam Creighton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I would′ve loved a phone call
One single reason why
You didn't wanna hurt me
Too afraid to say goodbye

Your silence is selfish but don′t get it twisted
I still want you gone
But this is my two cents,
I'm trying to make sense of where it all went wrong

I just wanna talk about it
All the words you never said to me
Thought we had an understanding
It's the least that you could do for me
Let′s live with no regrets
Even though we lost it in the end
I just wanna talk
So we should talk

Still waiting on an answer
′Cause I'm too scared to guess
Maybe if I try to hate you
You won′t be as hard to miss

I'll keep my compsure
It′s just for the closure, swear I won't make this long
So this is my two cents,
I′m trying to make sense of where it all went wrong

I just wanna talk about it
All the words you never said to me
Thought we had an understanding
It's the least that you could do for me
Let's live with no regrets
Even though we lost it in the end
I just wanna talk
So we should talk

I just wanna talk, talk, talk about it
You just find a way, way, way around it
I just wanna talk, talk, talk about it
Don′t you keep me wai-wai-waiting on it

I just wanna talk about it (talk, talk, talk about it)
All the words you never said to me (way, way, way around it)
Thought we had an understanding (talk, talk, talk about it)
It′s the least that you could do for me (way, way, way around it)
Just live with no regrets
Even though we lost it in the end
I just wanna talk (I just want to)
I just wanna talk (I just want to)




I just wanna talk (I just want to)
So we should talk about it
