Words of Wonder

Now listen to me, baby

I keep it on so low

And I whisper to you, sister

Now we're all alone

Take no notice of me, baby

Like a dream gonna keep it quit

So I can hear you scream

Words of wonder

Are the words I wanna hear

I'm sticking to you, baby, until I arrive

I'm half dead, a quarter alive

A little bit is missing

Wonder where it's gone

Pay me no attention, I babble on and on

Words, these words of wonder

Are the words I wanna hear

Those words, the words of wonder

They are the words I wanna hear

Dripping from your lips

Yeah, that's the way it goes

That's the way it comes

Ya' know what I mean

Now that your talkin' to me, baby

Still you say that I'm obscene

Words, words of wonder

They are the words I wanna hear

Words, those words of wonder

Are the words I wanna hear

Let me roll it over, baby

Now I got to jam it up

Make you weep and moan

Go around the back, baby

And make yourself known

The words, these are words of wonder

These are the words you better learn

These are words, these words of wonder

These are words, you ought to know

You been talkin' to me, sweetie

You know I babble on and on

Ooh, I run away my tongue

Giving thanks and praises

Low friends in high places

I'm gonna whisper these words of wonder
