Jesse Winchester - Loose Talk lyrics

So long we've been married, life's burdens we carried Though faith kept us humble and made our love true But plans that we make up, someone seems to break up Oh, darlin', what else can we do? We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear Someplace where we can live a life of our own For I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone When I go out walkin', there's lots of loose talkin' They say we're unhappy, and we'll break apart But darlin' it's not true because I still love you And I do with all of my heart We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear Someplace where we can live a life of our own For I know you love me And happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone They say you are leavin' that you are deceivin' But you tell me they say the same about me But we'll show them they're wrong That loose talk can do harm And hope that the truth they will see We may have to leave here to find peace of mind, dear Someplace where we can live a life of our own I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone If some folks would leave us I wish they would leave us If only they'd leave us alone
