Текст песни Silent Partner

Background voices calling from a distance, see no evil, hear no evil
Static on the line of least resistance, don't say nothin' at all
Don't say nothin' at all, don't say nothin' at all

I'm hangin' on a wire, waitin' on the word, I'm never seen, you're never heard
The object of desire is seldom ever clear, I reach for you, but all I hear

Are background voices calling from a distance
Silent partners listening to the hunch

A lover without words is easily deceived, and rumours easily believed
The matter of obsession's seldom ever clear, I turn around, you disappear

In background voices calling from a distance
Silent partners listening to the hunch

Silent partners, you know they don't say nothin' at all

What about the things we never mentioned, what about the things we never say
When we wind up targets of affection, in silence
Turning silent, the silent turn away

A power more or less is never really sure, exactly what to listen for
In secret service to the things they never say, the silent partners fade away

To background voices calling from a distance
Silent partners listening to the hunch

Silent partners, you know they don't say nothin' at all
