People marching down the street
A newspaper in their hand
They've all got some place to be
And no time to spare

The corner of a coffee shop
I hear a lot of classic lines
So many unspoken thoughts
And empty smiles, oh

Cheap words ain't hard to find, no
You can buy them a dime for a dozen
Sometimes life just seems like
Small talk, small talk, yeah
I'm tired of conversation
Trying to make sense about nothing
Well, I want more than just your
Small talk, small talk, yeah, yeah

Words for the sake of words
Won't fill the space between
Don't you think your love deserves
Something with a little meaning?

Cheap words ain't hard to find, no
You can buy them a dime for a dozen
Sometimes life just seems like
Small talk, small talk, yeah, yeah
Well, I'm tired of conversation
Trying to make sense about nothing
Well, I want more than just your
Small talk, small talk, yeah, yeah

Talk to me, yeah
I wanna see
The real you, oh
And me, yeah, oh, oh, oh

Cheap words ain't hard to find, no
You can buy them a dime for a dozen
Sometimes life just seems like
Small talk, small talk, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm tired of conversation
Trying to make sense about nothing
I want more than just your
Small talk, small talk, yeah, yeah
