Chris Chameleon- Language of love Lyrics

my language is no longer spoken
i no longer hear her sounds in the streets
she’s been reigned in
i guess it’s for the shame
of her speakers

my heart was raised in my tongue
without her my emotions are inadequate
my hope and woe contained in sound
the melody of her vocabulary

and when i dream
then i dream in my language
and when i speak
at night before i sleep
to my god i speak
in my language
he understands

the past in present takes its toll
it’s hands covered in the blood of innocence
when the morning breaks in the eastern glow
will the night of reckoning reveal a language killed

when all the world speaks just one tongue
capable of a single expression
the colour and the sound of everyman
confined to a single sound

then i will dream
and i’ll dream in my language
and when i speak
at night before i sleep
to my god i speak
in my language
he understands

and when we can’t talk anymore
when conversation has naught to gain from speech
then i’ll see in your eyes
the language every man
understands

then i will dream
then i’ll dream in my language
and when i speak
at night before i sleep
to my god i speak
in my language
he understands
