Only Tongue Can Tell Lyrics - Singles - Trash Can Sinatras

Once upon a sign I read a warning and it said 

'When in Rome don't feed the lions' 

What is meant I can't hazard a guess 

But now I've learnt my lesson I'm a better person 

I'm filled up with high hopes and I'm fed up with soft soaps 

Long in the tooth and short on wisdom 

Up to here with the ache of it 

And if the matchmaker calls hand in hand 

With a catch of the day I'll rise to the bait 

But it'll still be more than a heart can take 

More than feeling great 

More than a tongue can tell 

I'd need to take leave of my senses to get a moment's rest 

Following in footsteps 

Footsure in fancy dress 

Head in my hands I'm making plans 

Hoovering up for the day 

And if the matchmaker calls hand in hand 

With a catch of the day I'll rise to the bait 

But it'll still be more than a heart can take 

More than feeling great 

More than a tongue can tell
