[Chorus: Charlotte Day Wilson, BADBADNOTGOOD] I can, I can only whisper (Whisper) I can only cry (Cry), tonight I wish I was with her Yeah, we'd be getting by tonight [Verse 1: Charlotte Day Wilson] Instead I'm laying here by myself, yeah Just thinking 'bout the way that it felt, yeah 'Cause she was there when nobody else Could make out the words in my mouth [Chorus: Both, Charlotte Day Wilson, BADBADNOTGOOD] I can only whisper (Only, only whisper) Now I can only cry tonight I wish I was with her (Only, only, only) Yeah, we'd be getting by tonight [Verse 2: Charlotte Day Wilson]
But here, the poet floats in a well, yeah My words are soaking, coated in braille, yeah I look up at everyone else, oh yeah With everything I wish I could yell [Chorus: Both, Charlotte Day Wilson, BADBADNOTGOOD] I can only whisper (Only, only whisper) Now I can only cry tonight I wish I was with her (Only, only, only) 'Cause we'd be getting by tonight [Instrumental Bridge] [Outro: Charlotte Day Wilson, BADBADNOTGOOD] I can only whisper (Only whisper) I can only cry tonight (Cry tonight) If I could only see you now, I would be kissing you so sweetly We'd be getting by tonight
