nanci griffith - more than a whisper lyrics

oh, i wish that you would call
we have not spoken since last fall
that smoky conversation’s coming home
do i just read between your lines
yeah it could be this winter wine
so sweet upon my tongue tonight
it recalls your tender eyes
and i need more than a whisper
so much more than a whisper
it takes more than a whisper
to wake this weary fool
oh give me more than a whisper
if you’re saying i love you
cuz it’s the whispers that i’ve never understood
and it’s snowing up in the northlands
i read your warm words from the plains
while the poets say that i should never
be thinking of you this way
they say that i misread your lines
because i’ve been lonely all my life
and i’d be reaching for some silver
and leave my heart out in the fire
and i need more than a whisper
so much more than a whisper
it takes more than a whisper
to wake this weary fool
oh give me more than a whisper
if you’re saying i love you
cuz it’s the whispers that i’ve never understood
well i will drink my winter wine
when i get home i’ll change my life
i’ll only whisper that i love you
in those smoky bars at night
and though the poets say i’m lonely
there’s still this woman here inside
and i’ve never been a fool
when my heart was on the line
cuz i need more than a whisper
so much more than a whisper
it takes more than a whisper
to wake this weary fool
oh give me more than a whisper
if you’re saying i love you
cuz it’s the whispers that i’ve never understood
