In this vibrant track, Electric Light Orchestra captures the essence of desperation and longing as a man searches for his lost love. The repeated refrain "slow down" suggests he is overwhelmed by the pace at which his partner is moving, both literally and metaphorically. The lyrics depict a scenario where communication has broken down 📞, leaving him searching endlessly and hoping for reconciliation. The song conveys a sense of urgency and frustration but also an underlying hope that love can be rekindled if only they can reconnect. Overall, it's a powerful expression of the struggles in maintaining relationships amidst life's chaos 🌪️.
Sweet Talkin' Woman
Lyrics
(Sweet talkin' woman)
Where did you go?
I was searchin' (searchin') on a one-way street
I was hopin' (hopin') for a chance to meet
I was waitin' for the operator on the line
(She's gone so long) what can I do?
(Where could she be?) no, no, no
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I gotta get back to you
You gotta slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin' (run, run), you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
(Sweet talkin' woman)
I was (workin'), many days go by
I was thinkin' (thinkin') 'bout the lonely nights
Communication breakdown all around
(She's gone so long) what can I do?
(Where could she be now?) no, no, no
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I gotta get back to you
You gotta slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin' (run, run), you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
(Sweet talkin' woman)
I've been livin' (livin') on a dead-end street
I've been askin' (where's she hidin'?) everybody I meet
Insufficient data coming through
(She's gone so long) what can I do?
(Where could she be?) no no, no
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I gotta get back to you, no
Slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin' (run, run), you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
(Sweet talkin' woman)
Slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin', you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
Slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin', you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
Slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin', you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on)
Sweet talkin' lover (hold on)
It's so sad if that's the way it's over
Slow down (slow down)
Sweet talkin' woman (slow down)
You got me runnin', you got me searchin'
