With Words

Why do words have to flirt?

Why do words have to hurt?

Words may never pierce the skin

But they're always sinking in

Why do words have to flirt?

Why do words have to hurt?

Tensions can be lightened

As long as we aren't fight'n

Why do words have the flirt?

Why do words have the hurt?

Your words are kind and very nice

Your words move up and down my spine

These dear words are full of love

And seem to come from up above

Why do words have to flirt?

Why do words have to hurt?

With words, you have changed me

With words, you have saved me
