Lyrics Howard Jones

Howard Jones

I've Said Too Much

Put that finger back to my lips

Will I taste of sugar of cold wet stone?

Hope the shell will break on a paper dinner plate

Ooh, not a headstone

How long does it take to change the man?

How much sun to melt a frozen life?

How long will it take for the mask to slip

And find a way to mend this broken heart?

I've said too much, I've opened up

I've spilled my guts

I can't go back, no I won't go back

No I shouldn't ever go back to you

Push your finger into my ribs

Am I made of honey? Am I made of bone?

Scrape your nails over my skin

To find how many layers I'm wrapped in

How long does it take to change the man?

How much sun to melt a frozen life?

How long will it take for the mask to slip

And find a way to mend this broken heart?

I've said too much, I've opened up

I've spilled my guts

I can't go back, no I won't go back

No I shouldn't ever go back to you

Shouldn't ever go back to you

Shouldn't ever go back

Shouldn't ever go back to you

Here's the person you used to know

A strange new alchemy produces the gold

A local warming of a frozen ghost

A homeless entity returned to the host

How long does it take to change the man?

How much sun to melt a frozen life?

How long will it take for the mask to slip

And find a way to mend this broken heart?

I've said too much, I've opened up

I've spilled my guts

No I can't go back, no I won't go back

No I shouldn't ever go back

I've said too much, I've opened up

I've spilled my guts

I can't go back, no I won't go back

No I shouldn't ever go back to you

Shouldn't ever go back to you

Shouldn't ever go back

Shouldn't ever go back
