Come Talk to Me - Peter Gabriel

Ah please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me
Come talk to me

The wretched desert takes it's form
the jackal proud and tight
In search of you, I feel my way
through slowest heaving night

Whatever fear invents
I swear it make no sense
I reach out through the border fence
Come down, come talk to me

In the swirling, curling storm of desire
unuttered words hold fast
With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes
towers built to last

Darkness creeps in like a thief
and offers no relief
Why are you shaking like a leaf?
Come on, come talk to me

Ah please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me

I did not come to steal
This all is so unreal
Can't you show me how you feel now?
Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me
Come talk to me

The earthly power sucks shadowed milk
from sleepy tears undone
From nippled skin as smooth as silk
the bugles blown as one

You lie there with your eyes half closed
like there's no one there at all
There's a tension pulling on your face
Come on, come talk to me

Ah please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me

Don't you ever change your mind
Now your future's so defined
And you act so deaf so blind
Come on, come talk to me

Come talk to me
Come talk to me

I can imagine the moment
breaking out through the silence
all the things that we both might say

And the heart it will not be denied
'til we're both on the same damn side
all the barriers blown away

Ah please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me

I did not come to steal
This all is so unreal
Can you show me how you feel now?
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me

Come talk to me
Come talk to me

Comunicación

las palabras pueden construir murallas gigantescas

towers built to last

pero también en un momento

pueden derribarlas



Y quién puede cantar un dueto perfecto mientras habla por teléfono y es jalado por el cordón extra large de una caseta telefónica EN VIVO?

Sólo Peter Gabriel.
