10cc — Code of Silence

[Verse 1] Deep in the night I can hear you calling my name How can I try to help you woman If you go on hiding your pain? Baby, baby, the tears on your pillow are real You can't go on pretending to me When I see the pain that you feel [Chorus] A code of silence, it's a dreadful thing It can make you feel harder It can keep you hanging on a string Here in the darkness When I hear you calling my name A code of silence, it's a deadly game It's a deadly game (Speak to me now) It's a deadly game (What's that you say?) It's a deadly game (Speak to me now) It's a deadly game (Mmm) [Verse 2] Lost in your dreams Trouble on your face in the pale moonlight Nowhere to run you've got to let me know Where you are standing tonight Baby, baby, baby I know that you're hurting inside Open your heart I know that we can make it If you talk to me now [Chorus] A code of silence, it's a deadly game It can make you feel harder It can leave you hanging on a string Here in the darkness When I hear you calling my name A code of silence, it's a deadly game It's a deadly game (Speak to me now) It's a deadly game (What's that you say?) It's a deadly game (Deadly game) It's a deadly game (Ooh) [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] A code of silence, it's a dreadful thing It can make you feel harder It can keep you hanging on a string Here in the darkness When I hear you calling my name A code of silence, it's a deadly game It's a deadly game (What's that you say?) It's a deadly game (Talk to me now) It's a deadly game (Deadly game) It's a deadly game (Talk to me now) It's a deadly game (What's that you say?) It's a deadly game (Talk to me now) It's a deadly game (Deadly game) [Outro] It's a deadly game It's a deadly game It's a deadly game It's a deadly game
