[chorus]

Every word from your mouth;

Is like the twist of a knife;

Every word that you say;

Makes me know I'm gonna pay;

Every word that you speak;

Makes me weaker than weak;

Every word that you say;

Stays with me everyday.

 

When I talk to you;

I feel like nobody else;

But when I talk to you;

I feel like somebody else;

Every word that you utter;

Oh, it makes my heart stutter;

When I talk to you;

I don't want anyone else.

 

Every word from your mouth;

Is like the twist of a knife;

Every word that you say;

Makes me know I'm gonna pay;

Every word that you speak;

Makes me weaker than weak;

Every word that you say;

Stays with me everyday.

 

You have a way about you;

That makes me smile;

Before I met you;

I hadn't laughed in awhile;

But I still can't decide;

If we'd be better off;

Having never met at all;

Then this wouldn't hurt so much.

 

Every word from your mouth;

Is like the twist of a knife;

Every word that you say;

Makes me know I'm gonna pay;

Every word that you speak;

Makes me weaker than weak;

Every word that you say;

Stays with me everyday.

 

I want to spend;

My every waking moment;

Thinking of you;

And talking to you all day.

You already occupy;

My every dream;

And I think about you;

All night long.

 

Every word from your mouth;

Is like the twist of a knife;

Every word that you say;

Makes me know I'm gonna pay;

Every word that you speak;

Makes me weaker than weak;

Every word that you say;

Stays with me everyday.

 

But it's hard to get around;

This pain that you cause me;

And the pain that I cause you.

So maybe it's time;

For me to say goodbye;

I'm sure you'll forget me soon enough.

I'm sure you'll forget me soon enough.
