Talk To Her
The Priestess Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You shut her out for too long
I know 'cause I've seen her cry
If you keep her down, she'll get up and move on
Wake up, it's time
Open your eyes
You've got to let her know
Make up your mind
Love her, or let her go
Talk to her, you've done something wrong
We've all got something to hide
But don't turn your back for too long
There'll always be somebody waiting in line
I could be all that she wants
Got a heart, got a home, got a hand for her to hold
Talk to her, there's something you'll find
With all this pain that you caused
You'll be the loser this time
And I'll be the one with the girl that you lost
Believe me, she's leaving
And I'll be the one
Look what you lost

The singer urges the listener to open their eyes, let her know how they feel, and either love her or let her go. The second verse states that the man has done something wrong, and while we all have something to hide, you cannot turn your back for too long because there will always be someone waiting in line. The bridge of the song is where the singer reveals that she could be all that the woman wants, with a heart, a home, and a hand to hold. But, she continues to encourage the listener to talk to her because they will be the loser this time.

This was them under Universal Music. They apparently didn't like this kind of music and moved on after this album.
Honestly, I think Universal was right. This album is great.

I'm surprised Priestess isn't more popular. They have such a distinctive sound.
