Mary Chapin Carpenter Lyrics
"Shut Up And Kiss Me"

Don't mean to get a little forward with you
Don't mean to get ahead of where we are
Don't mean to act a little nervous around you
I'm just a little nervous about my heart
'Cause it's been a while since I felt this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Oooh shut up and kiss me

Didn't expect to be in this position
Didn't expect to have to rise above
My reputation for cynicism
I've been a jaded lady when it comes to love
But oh baby just to feel this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Oooh shut up and kiss me

There's something about the silent type
Attracting me to you
All business baby, none of the hype
That no talker can live up too, woo woo

Come closer baby I can't hear you
Just another whisper if you please
Don't worry 'bout the details darlin'
You've got the kind of mind I love to read
Talk is cheap and baby time's expensive
So why waste another minute more ?
Life's too short to be so apprehensive
Love's as much the symptom as the cure
Oh baby when I feel this feeling
It's like genuine voodoo hits me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Oh baby I can feel this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Oooh shut up and kiss me
Shut up and kiss me
