Lyrics - More Than A Whisper by Griffith Nanci


Oh,
I wish that you would call
We have not spoken since last fall
That smoky conversation's coming home
Do
I just read between your lines
Yeah it could be this winter wine
So sweet upon my tongue tonight
It recalls your tender eyes
And
I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh give me more than a whisper
If you're saying
I love you
Cuz it's the whispers that
I've never understood
And it's snowing up in the northlands
I read your warm words from the plains
While the poets say that
I should never
Be thinking of you this way
They say that
I misread your lines
Because
I've been lonely all my life
And
I'd be reaching for some silver
And leave my heart out in the fire
And
I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh give me more than a whisper
If you're saying
I love you
Cuz it's the whispers that
I've never understood
Well
I will drink my winter wine
When
I get home
I'll change my life
I'll only whisper that
I love you
In those smoky bars at night
And though the poets say
I'm lonely
There's still this woman here inside
And
I've never been a fool
When my heart was on the line
Cuz
I need more than a whisper
So much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper
To wake this weary fool
Oh give me more than a whisper
If you're saying
I love you
Cuz it's the whispers that
I've never understood
