Lyrics
The Voice
Native these words seem to me
All speech directed to me
I've heard them once before
I know that feeling
Stranger emotions in mind
Changing the cool tools of wine
I've seen them once before
Someone try's to be
(Oh oh oh oh) the look at the sound of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) and they try and they try
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the shape and the power of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) In stronger tones
Forceful and twisting again
Wasting the perfect remains
I've felt it once before
Slipping over me
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the look and the sound of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) they try, they try
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the shape and the power of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) In strong low tones
So sweetly the voices decay
Draw on the lines that they say
I'd lost it once before
Now it cries to me
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the look and the sound of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) they try, they try
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the shape and the power of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) In strong low tones
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the look and the power of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) they try
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the shape and the sound of the voice
(Oh oh oh oh oh) In strong low tones
(Oh oh oh oh oh) the shape and the power of the voice
