A Word

Music/lyrics by Aaron Booth

I’m not versed in telling you
Something’s weighing on my mind
With a chorus surrounding you
Our love is left behind
Are we so fragile here
That words can shatter all the years
Of me trying to talk to you
In a voice to quiet to hear

I am versed in listening
To you live a minor key
With a chorus inside of you
Our love’s a melody
We are so fragile here
Bound in a silent song
You’ve learned to sing to me
I’ve learned to hum along

I hear you speak
Do you hear me speak
These feet are messengers
Legs are signposts
This body’s a word
