sonnerie téléphone portable pour More than a whisper
Video clip

Oh, i wish that you would call
We have not spoken since last fall
And that smoky conversation's
Coming home

Do i just read between your lines?
Yeah, could be this winter wine
So sweet upon my tongue tonight
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 sayin', i love you
'cause 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 thinkin' of you this way

And they say that i misread your lines
'cause 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 sayin', i love you
'cause 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

'cause 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 sayin', i love you
'cause it's the whispers
That i've never understood
