in AlbumBreakfast In America

Correct Title is Casual Conversations (plural)

It doesn't matter what I say

You never listen anyway

Just don't know what you're looking for

Imagination's all I have

But eveN then you say it's bad

Just can't see why we disagree

AND Casual conversations how they bore me

YEAH, they go on and on endlessly

No matter what I say

You'LL ignore me anyway

I might as well talk in my sleep (YEAH, I could weep)

You try to make me feel so small

Until there's nothing left at all

Why go on, just hoping that we'll get along?

There's no communication left between us

But is it me or you who's to blame?

There's nothing I can do, yes you're fading out of view

Don't know if I feel joy or pain (AND IT'S SUCH A SHAME)

And now it SEEMS IT'S all been said

If you must leave then go ahead

Should feel sad

But I really believe that I'm glad

Yes I really believe that I'm glad

I REALLY BELIEVE THAT I'M GLAD

Using poignant lines like 'There are times when I don't say a thing for hours and you can bet that I don't even regret it,' the song poignantly captures the feelings of distance and detachment that can creep into intimate partnerships. The song emphasizes the unfortunate shift from meaningful dialogue to mere casual conversation, highlighting a loss of connection and understanding, ultimately reflecting on the challenges and complexities of maintaining emotional intimacy.
