I wanna do the right thing, be a good friend
Like to be reliable to you til the end
I’m lapping up the specialness of being chosen
To carry the intangible in a invisible way
But how much does a whisper weigh? How much can I hold?
It’s not something I asked of you, I didn’t want to be told
So how much does a whisper weigh?
Mmm, well how much can I say?
I wanna shield you from the fear, shelter you from pain
Try to keep you happy here, try to raise you sane
But you can take it Cocomo, can you hold it Jojo?
Thinking you be ready baby, but spreading it’s a no-no
And how much does a whisper weigh? How much should I say?
It’s not about the things you do but who you choose to do them to
So how much does a whisper weigh?
Woh, how much can I say?
The hummingbirds are humming, the bees are all a-buzzing
The word is out and there’s a lot of it about
Curiosity is thirsty, the blister is a-bursting
The word is out and there’s a lot of it about
The word is out and there’s a lot of it about
The word is out yes there’s a lot of it about
The word is out
But you can take it daddy-boy, you can hold it Jojo
Seems like you are ready boy
And spreading is a no-no no no no
So how much does a whisper weigh? How much can I say?
Once it’s left my station then I cannot keep the word train
From whistling on a summer wind, swinging on the vines
Blowing through the whispering grass on the trail of the pines
So how much does a whisper weigh? We sink before we’ve started
Covering up the truth again, round and round and round
and round and round oh
How much does a whisper weigh?
How much do I say?
