HOW YOU SAY IT

Sometimes it is
what you say
but tonight it is
how you say it
so talk and sing
and maybe howl
and I'll stay up
a little while
and you can tell me
what you know
but it's how you say it
that will show
me what it is you
need
to say
so tell me then
'bout night
and day
and the ends of things
and the very start
and about this woman
who broke your heart.
