[Intro - spoken, over Rhodes, no drums] Two ten in the mornin'... And I ain't gon' lie to you, I drove past. I saw what I saw. And I'm still standin' here. So that should tell you somethin' about me. [Verse 1] I ain't come to fight about it I ain't come to make you stand there and explain I coulda pulled up sideways, coulda made a scene Woke up every window on this street But I parked And I walked And I knocked like a grown man And I'm still knockin' [Pre-Chorus] Whatever it is, say it to my face I can take it from your mouth, girl I can't take it from my head 'Cause my head been lyin' to me since one thirty [Chorus] Talk to me Don't send me nothin' in the mornin' Don't let one of your girls tell me first Talk to me Open the door and say it plain I'd rather bleed out standin' here Than guess for one more hour Just talk to me [Verse 2] Two years, and I ain't never asked you where you was Never picked your phone up off the table Never went through nothin' So don't hand me silence now Like silence is somethin' I earned I earned words Give me the words [Pre-Chorus] Whatever it is, say it to my face Call me every name I ever been Just don't make me stand out here and build it 'Cause what I build is worse [Chorus] Talk to me Don't send me nothin' in the mornin' Don't let one of your girls tell me first Talk to me Open the door and say it plain I'd rather bleed out standin' here Than guess for one more hour Just talk to me [Bridge - half time, drop to Rhodes and one bass note, spoken into sung] You know what the crazy part is? I'm not even mad about what I saw. I'm mad I had to see it 'Stead of hear it from you. Two years, and you couldn't pick up the phone And be honest with me one time... So come to the door. Don't say sorry. Don't even say my name. Just say it. Say it and I'll go [Chorus - modulate up a half step, E minor] Talk to me Don't send me nothin' in the mornin' Don't let one of your girls tell me first Talk to me Open the door and say it plain I'd rather bleed out standin' here Than guess for one more hour Just talk to me [Vamp / Outro - full stacks, ad libs, guitar answering] Talk to me, talk to me I'm right here, I ain't movin' Say it to my face, say it to my face I can take it, baby, I can take it Just talk to me Talk to me
