Love’s Too Familiar a Word lyrics
Buy unreleased and rare Ellis Paul CDs & Vinyl records (over 189 titles available!)
Because late is the time I keep You were sleeping warm as coal In a pocket of comfort and white sheets But you don’t startle anymore when I step into the room Though the hour is later than midnight And neither window can place a moon. I missed you, you say And it sounds like a promise When whispered half asleep Your skin still damp with sweat From thoughts your dreams refused to keep I follow my memory to a switch on a light Shut your eyes my voice cut short When darkness turns bright Do you love me? you say But love is too familiar a word For in this bed 10,000 times a phrase already heard But, yes, I love you speaks my reply Though I know I failed myself and you for not Matching how I feel with words of higher wealth I know it’s lonely in the world tonight Because here is more than what’s deserved And the imbalance can’t be summed in black and white Cause love’s too familiar a word. ![]() More Ellis Paul Song Lyrics
