Joni, do I have to spell it out to you
If you read it, will it make it more true
I know it's easier than saying it
But it don't feel the same
Don't you have the time to talk to someone
Who gave you his name
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
I wanna taste your lips, and feel your embrace
I wanna see your eyes lookin deep in mine
& hear your sweet voice speak my name
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
Lately when I call, you don't answer
We used to talk, don't you remember
So I leave you a message
To let you know I still love you
And all you reply is "LY2"
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
I wanna taste your lips, and feel your embrace
I wanna see your eyes lookin deep in mine
& hear your sweet voice speak my name
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
Somethings are easier to spell than to say
Saving up all my problems for a rainy day
Bottle up my worries and thoughts
Put my feelings to rhythm and rhyme
I guess it's a whole lot easier than to give you my time
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
I wanna taste your lips, and feel your embrace
I wanna see your eyes lookin deep in mine
& hear your sweet voice speak my name
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
Xs & Os, Xs & Os just ain't the same
