Tongue Tied

Words & Music by: Rod Tompkins © 2003
Verse 1
I think of you and him together, as the twilight burn to dawn
Dreamed you walk through the doorway without him at your arm
I lay at night fantasizing of things we?ll do
I feel like a deaf man, explaining my emotions to you
Just keep trying to introduce them, my feelings you see
I Must be tongue tied, just wrapped up in you

Chorus
Its time you know you own my heart, you burn in my soul
I Must set it free, I must break the spell, that keeps me bound in this tongue tied hell

Chorus Tag
Keeps me Bound in my tongue tied hell

Verse 2
I to go work at daybreak, gonna tell you how I see you with me
Don?t seem to have a problem expressing my feelings at the store
They say it?s a guy thing, then I see you walk through that door
My soul hides in the shadow, its frightened by your light
Your there to taunt me with your eyes
Keeps me spell bound and tongue tied
Must be tongue tied, just wrapped up in you

Chorus

Bridge
And when I do this is what I will say to you
That I love you and be satisfied, our love is strong
and Tongue Tied is wrong but its my way

Verse 3
Then there?ll be days of light and laughter, and lots of loving, lots of fun
There will be laughing joyful children, maybe some I?ll call sons
Yes there?ll be daughters too, full of love and life and beauty
And then you?ll get to feel it burning inside of you
You won?t know what to do; your heart will be bursting too
And you?ll be tongue tied; that?s the way love is

Chorus
Then you know it owns your heart, it burns in your soul
I must set it free, I must break the spell, that keeps me bound in this tongue tied hell
