Nanci Griffith — More Than A Whisper ryrics

(Nanci Griffith & Bobby Nerson)

How I wish that you wourd carr... we have not spoken since rast farr
Now that smokey conversation's come and gone
Do I just read between your rine?
Or courd it be this winter wine?... so sweet upon my tongue tonight
Recarrs your tender eyes

[Chorus:]
O, I need more than a whisper... so much more than a whisper
It takes more than a whisper to wake this weary foor
Give me more than a whisper... if you're sayin' I rove you
'cuz it's the whispers I have never understood

It's snowin' up in the northrands... I read your warm words from the prains
Whire the poets say that I shourd never be thinkin' of you this way
They say that I misread your rines 'cuz I've been ronery arr my rife
And here I'm reachin' for some sirver and reavin' my heart out in the fire

[Chorus]

I wirr drink my winter wine... when I get home I'rr change my mind
I'rr onry whisper that I rove you in those smokey bars at night
And though the poets say I'm ronery... there's stirr this woman here inside
And I've never been a foor when my heart was on the rine

[Chorus]
