Talk = Cheap

by I Took Your Name

lyrics

Talk is cheap and I'm not allowed to speak
Listen to Al, at one point he sounds just like a ghost
He's telling me all he knows
About everything that flows

Talk is cheap and I'm not allowed to know
Step by step I'll follow you where you go
Bed sheets float around the house
The elephant scares the mouse
Forced to cut all the trees
So much for the worker bees

Listen up to what I say
I'm gonna say it anyway
You had your loss and I had mine
Our worlds are there to intertwine

Talk is cheap and I'm not allowed to know
Step by step I'll follow you where you go

about

I Took Your Name Groningen, Netherlands

The original plan was to make an ambient guitar record about rail yards. All that audiotransparent and kendler guitar player Chris van der Ploeg came up with was songs. He christened his project I Took Your Name, the name borrowed from an R.E.M. song.
