Pat Benatar - Silent partner

Background voices calling from a distance See no evil, hear no evil) Static on the line of least resistance Don't say nothing at all Don't say nothing at all Don't say nothing at all I'm hanging on a wire, waitin' on the word I'm never seen, you're never heard The object of desire is seldom ever clear I reach for you but all I hear Are the background voices calling from a distance Silent Partners, listen to the hush A lover without words is easily deceived And rumors easily believed The matter of obsession is seldom ever clear I turn around, you disappear In background voices calling from a distance Silent Partners, listen to the hush Silent Partners You know they don't say nothing at all What about the things we never mention? What about the things we never say? Will we wind up targets of affection? In silence, turning silent The silent turn away A paramour or less, is never really sure Exactly what to listen for In secret service to the things they never say The Silent Partners fade away To background voices, calling from a distance Silent Partners, listen to the hush Silent Partners You know they don't say nothing at all
