Every Time She Whispers

Every Time She Whispers

By Michael Franks

There isn't any part of me she does not know

We're been together out a thousand years or so

Still almost instantly my love begins to show

Every time she whispers

It makes no difference if I'm upon my luck

When she invites me in my gloom becomes unstuck

I feel the barriers around me deconstruct

Every time she whispers

Tensions dissolve when we touch

In her arms the world is erased when it's too much

All of my deep blue disappears

As soon as I hear her whisper

Passion evolves when we touch

In her arms I measure success counting how much

Music she composes in sighs

And how many times she whispers my name

Love is the weakness that we need to make us strong

How can a hundred million Frenchmen all be wrong

And I'm completely at the mercy of her song

Every time she whispers
