I don't wanna talk about it now
seems so long ago
and you don't need to know
all those little things
like who your daddy was
you didn't miss a thing
and I don't wanna talk about it now

Why's my brother crying on the telephone
he's having those bad dreams
and feels so alone
he said to ask you why
you've got to try
cos he don't wanna talk about it now

...
They say the truth can set you free
that's where I wanna be
so, mom, why won't you
talk about it
now?

>>

Where'd my sister go in '63
seems like she was gone
forever and so long
was she being bad?
cos now she's sad
and she dont' wanna talk about it now

They say the truth can set you free
that's where I wanna be
so, mom, you've got to
talk about it....
now
(she never will., but I tried)

(sigh)

Redwalker,
I can relate to this, sometimes now is never a good time to talk but tomorrow is always possible as long as it doesn't become now!

The truth won't always set you free. Sometimes it only opens more wounds, and then the questions just keep coming. Don't worry about what has been, look ahead not back.
