Tip Of My Tongue Lyrics by John Hiatt

Tip Of My Tongue Lyrics

    An empty house
    Is the only thing standin'
    Between our lives
    And the speed of sound

    Some words flew out
    And made a crash landin'
    No love survived
    Not a trace could be found

    Chorus:
    I broke your heart
    With the back of my mind
    From the tip of my tongue
    To the end of the line

    I walked away
    And you stood there tremblin'
    Like a leaf
    In the autumn chill

    Now this house won't say, no
    What i'm still rememberin'
    Three angry words
    And a love that they killed

    Chorus

    Bridge:
    You couldn't say how much it hurt you
    And i couldn't see the damage i'd done
    'til i watched the greatest love i've known
    All come down to a slip of the tongue

    Well i'd take it back
    But time won't let me
    No, time just takes
    You further away

    I watched you pack
    A house full of memories
    Where did you go
    Lord, what did i say?

    Chorus
