Pat Benatar - Silent Partner текст песни

Background voices calling from a distance

See no evil, hear no evil)

Static on the line of least resistance

Dont say nothing at all

Dont say nothing at all

Dont say nothing at all

Im hanging on a wire, waitin on the word

Im never seen, youre never heard

The object of desire is seldom ever clear

I reach for you but all I hear

Are the background voices calling from a distance

Silent partners, listen to the hush

A lover without words is easily deceived

And rumors easily believed

The matter of obsession is seldom ever clear

I turn around, you disappear

In background voices calling from a distance

Silent partners, listen to the hush

Silent partners

You know they dont say nothing at all

What about the things we never mention?

What about the things we never say?

Will we wind up targets of affection?

In silence, turning silent

The silent turn away

A paramour or less, is never really sure

Exactly what to listen for

In secret service to the things they never say

The silent partners fade away

To background voices, calling from a distance

Silent partners, listen to the hush

Silent partners

You know they dont say nothing at all
