We only spoke the once
I thought you liked what you heard
I thought you might like to have some tea
There's a little shop you're always in
Maybe I should have said some more
Not just 'hi' and a wave
I wrote a message to say 'hey!'
Maybe I should have sent it
I held the door for you
Should have made some comment
Thought "shouldn't there be a quicker way?"
No doubt you did too
But still you're silent
And I don't remember now
You'd be the kernel of my life
But I will not worship in your image
[chorus:]
You can live in peace
You're not tearing me to pieces
Not anymore
But I wouldn't mind knowing how
You've got it down to an art
You know how to be silent
Is that what we want?
You sit across from me every day
Together we eat in silent peace
Mine is chutney and lettuce salad
What do you have for lunch?
We both laugh inside and avert our eyes
When the man makes a pitiful joke
I could call you tonight
We'd laugh together
Is the treaty broken yet?
