  • You wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it,
    Wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it,
    Eh, eh, eh
    You wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it,
    Wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it,
    Eh, eh, eh

    How you doing? How was your day?
    Small talk, small talk, you wanna play?
    You getting further, further away,
    No kiss No hug Just blank

    And I just can't figure out,
    How it all turned upside down
    And when I look at you right now, it's strange 'cause

    I know something's going on
    That's going on with you
    I think you should tell me
    You got nothing left to lose

    Ah, there's an elephant, standing in the room
    Ah, though we're all alone,
    It's not just me and you

    You wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it
    Wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it (eh, eh, eh)
    You wanna talk, you wanna talk about it
    There's an elephant in the room

    Oh, you wanna, wanna explain
    Well your talk is cheap cheap just saying
    You say you're sorry, say you're to blame,
    And you're promising, you swear you'll change

    And I just can't figure out,
    How it all turned upside down
    And when I look at you right now, it's strange 'cause

    I know something's going on
    That's going on with you
    I think you should tell me
    You got nothing left to lose

    Ah, there's an elephant standing in the room
    Ah, though we're all alone,
    It's not just me and you

    You wanna talk, you wanna talk about it
    Wanna talk, you wanna talk about it (eh, eh, eh)
    You wanna talk, you wanna talk about it
    There's an elephant in the room

    And it's crushing me, there's no room to breathe
    Got me backed against the wall, like that
    And I just can't see, 'cause it's blinding me
    Coming closer, I can't relax

    (oh, ah)

    You wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it
    Wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it (eh, eh, eh)
    You wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it
    Wanna talk, do you wanna talk about it (eh, eh, eh)
