It's never been easy living with you Dish of the season fishing for truth But we got it rolling right on the track Here's to the future with no turning back We're taking half and half in mystery We're making love to love so easily And still I can't believe what's going round I don't believe you'd ever let me down I hear talk, I hear the writings on the wall Too many private eyes and party lines Secret signs friends who seem to know it all I hear talk, I hear talk Talk Look in your eyes and what do I see Everything I needed looking at me Beyond all suspicion dreams on the side Hold that position ticket to ride So when it's all wrapped up Like it's meant to be The only trap that's left is jealousy And still I can't believe what's going round I don't believe you'd ever let me down I hear talk, I hear the writings on the wall Too many private eyes and party lines Secret signs friends who seem to know it all I hear talk, I hear talk Talk Chinese whispers circulate There's a news man leaning on the garden gate If you don't wanna headline better use your head ?Cause I heard someone say something you said I hear talk, I hear the writings on the wall Too many private eyes and party lines Secret signs friends who seem to know it all I hear talk, I hear talk Talk I hear the writings on the wall Too many private eyes and party lines secret signs Friends who seem to know it all I hear talk, I hear talk Talk talk talk
