Lyrics
TIP OF MY TONGUE
(Words and music by Tom Lerner and Ned Albright)
There was talk talk talk
All around us in the coffee shop
When you asked my name
Just to mark it on my coffee cup
You gave me a smile and
Down from the sky came
Thunder and lightning
That’s when I choked inside
Chorus:
It was right on the tip of my tongue
I wanted to tell you
“You are the one”
I wanted to say
“Baby I love you”
But the words got stuck
On the tip of my tongue
I can speak my mind
Selling anybody anything
But to speak my heart
Straight to you has got me stammering
Why am I scared to?
Why can’t I dare to?
Why do I stare and
Looks for somewhere to hide?
(Repeat Chorus)
When it’s…
