Tricky Words

[Verse] I heard a word that made me grin Sharp as a tack yet wearing thin It twists and turns inside my brain Like a kite caught up in the rain [Chorus] Oh tricky words they trip and play Slip through my fingers then run away Say it once it sticks like glue Say it twice and it’s brand new [Verse 2] Letters dancing across the page A riddle locked inside a cage What’s in a name what’s in a sound A laugh that echoes and spins around [Bridge] So speak it bold or whisper low A spark ignites and starts to glow Words are tricky but don’t you see They’re the music in our melody [Chorus] Oh tricky words they trip and play Slip through my fingers then run away Say it once it sticks like glue Say it twice and it’s brand new
