When she talks i listen.
it's something significant because i don't often.
words passed on a boat
i'll remember every note.
When she talks
when she talks.
When she smiles it's lovely.
she handles the boys when the drinking gets ugly.

i'll never understand ahhhhh....
how she's always in command. always in command
When she talks
when she talks
i listen.
A man should not be blamed
for wanting to make her mine.
but you can't define the girl
she's her
and i would never try.
(short guitar solo)
When it's time i know she won't stay with me.
how could just one man ever make her happy?
my vision of the sea ahhhh....
my lasting memory lasting memory
When she talks
when she talks
i listen.
