Rufus Wainwright & Petra Haden - Talk To Me (Demo) Lyrics

Rufus Wainwright & Petra Haden Lyrics

"Talk To Me (Demo)"
(from "John Cassavetes' Opening Night (Original West End Live Cast Recording)" soundtrack)

Talk to me I'm trying to tell you something
Open up your ears and hear what I want to say
There isn't anyone else but me here
There isn't anyone else who's listening

One more dream that will not come true
One more wish that has fallen through
One more war I am caught between
One more fight where I'm the one who's mean

Always waiting on the corner
In New York somewhere
Caught between the border
Of hell and high water
There isn't anyone else but me here
There isn't anyone else who's listening

Talk to me I'm trying to tell you something
Open up your ears and hear
What I want to say
There isn't anyone else but me here
There isn't anyone else who's listening

One more dream that will not come true
One more wish that has fallen through
One more war that I'm caught between
One more fight where I'm the one who's mean

Always waiting on the corner
In New York somewhere
Caught between the border
Of hell and high water
There isn't anyone else but me here
There isn't anyone else who's listening
