Those Sweet Words - Norah Jones



What did you say?
I know I saw you singing
But my ears won't stop ringing
Long enough to hear
Those sweet words
What did you say?

End of the day 
The hour hand has spun
But before the night is done
I just have to hear
Those sweet words 
Spoken like a melody

All your love 
In a lost balloon
Rising up through the afternoon
'Til it could fit on the head of a pin
Come on in
Did you have a hard time sleeping
'Cause the heavy moon was keeping
Me awake, and all I know is
I'm just glad to 
See you again

See my love
Like a lost balloon
Rising up
Through the afternoon, and
Then you appeared

What did you say?
I know what you were singing
But my ears won't stop ringing
Long enough to hear
Those sweet words
And your simple melody

I just have to hear
Those sweet words
Spoken like a sweet melody
I just want to hear
Those sweet words
