Big old moon and a sweet, starry night
Think I'll go out walkin'
Wish I could change the way you're feelin' tonight
But I'm just tired of talkin'

You're still givin' me that same old line
Like a bird that keeps on squawkin'
Sometimes I wonder what goes on in your mind
I'm just tired of talkin'

Now little by little and bit by bit
The truth is slowly dawnin'
I love you honey but you just won't quit
Let's leave it til the mornin'

You lay the bait and I get caught in your trap
I'm the game you're stalkin'
Let's say good night and just leave it like that
I'm so tired of talkin', yes I am

Now little by little and bit by bit
The truth is slowly dawnin'
We've got a puzzle but the pieces don't fit
Let's leave it til the mornin'

Same old blues at the end of the night
But you've got to keep on rockin'
Turn up the music and turn out the light
I'm so tired of talkin', yeah, yeah, yeah
