Nanci Griffith
Oh, I wDish that you would call
We have not spGoken since last fall
That sCmoky conversGation's coming Dhome
DDo I just read between your lines
Yeah it could Gbe this winter wine
So sCweet upon my tGongue tonight
It recalls your tender eDyes
And I nGeed more than a whisper
So much mCore than a whisper
It takes Gmore than a whisper
To wAake this weary fDool
Oh give me mGore than a whisper
If you're sCaying I love you
Cuz it's the wGhispers that I've nAever understooDd
DAnd it's snowing up in the northlands
I read your Gwarm words from the plains
While the Cpoets say that GI should never
Be thinking of you this wDay
DThey say that I misread your lines
Because I've been lGonely all my life
And I'd be Creaching for some sGilver
And leave my heart out in the fDire
And I need mGore than a whisper
So much Cmore than a whisper
It takes Gmore than a whisper
To wAake this weary fDool
Oh give me mGore than a whisper
If you're sCaying I love you
Cuz it's the Gwhispers that IA've never understoDod
WDell I will drink my winter wine
When I get Ghome I'll change my life
I'll only wChisper that I lGove you
In those smoky bars at nigDht
DAnd though the poets say I'm lonely
There's still this Gwoman here inside
And I've Cnever been a Gfool
When my heart was on the lDine
Cuz I need mGore than a whisper
So much Cmore than a whisper
It takes Gmore than a whisper
To wAake this weary fDool
Oh give me Gmore than a whisper
If you're sCaying I love you
Cuz it's the wGhispers that I've Anever understoDod
