"Something About What Happens When We Talk" lyrics

"Something About What Happens When We Talk"

If I had my way
I'd be in your town
I might not stay
But at least I would have been around

Cause there's something about what happens when we talk
Something about what happens when we talk

Does this make sense?
It doesn't matter anyway
Is it coincidence?
Or was it meant to be

Cause there's something about what happens when we talk
Something about what happens when we talk

And conversation with you
Was like a drug
It wasn't your face
So much as it was your words

And there's something about what happens when we talk
Something about what happens when we talk

I can't stay around
Cause I'm going back south
But all I regret now
Is I never kissed your mouth

Cause there's something about what happens when we talk
Something about what happens when we talk
