Hothouse Flowers - One Tongue lyrics

What in the world caused this distance? And what in the world hurt our hearts? And what are we to do about it? And what are we to start? We have an answer and it is language It might be silence it might be words It includes some understanding And it includes the will to learn To be talking, talking, talking one tongue Talking, talking one tongue And give us the strength to look straight at you Let doubt be the furthest from our minds So we can continue to be and know that we should be here And we can see the light inside And as it gets more complicated, simplicity must arise So we can follow in this feeling And we can keep this song alive To be talking, talking, talking one tongue Talking, talking, talking one tongue Yes there are many, many questions Yes there is red tape on the ground Yes the simple truth can cut through anything Just touch base and make this sound I said yes there are too many questions Yes there is red tape on the ground Yes the simple truth can cut through anything Talking, talking, talking one tongue
