Conversation is a form of interactive, spontaneous communication between two or more people. Typically it occurs in spoken communication, as written exchanges are usually not referred to as conversations. The development of conversational skills and etiquette is an important part of socialization. The development of conversational skills in a new language is a frequent focus of language teaching and learning.
Conversation analysis is a branch of sociology which studies the structure and organization of human interaction, with a more specific focus on conversational interaction.
No generally accepted definition of conversation exists, beyond the fact that a conversation involves at least two people talking together. Consequently, the term is often defined by what it is not. A ritualized exchange such a mutual greeting is not a conversation, and an interaction that includes a marked status differential (such as a boss giving orders) is also not a conversation. An interaction with a tightly focused topic or purpose is also generally not considered a conversation. Summarizing these properties, one authority writes that "Conversation is the kind of speech that happens informally, symmetrically, and for the purposes of establishing and maintaining social ties."

I'd paint your hair crimson red.
And your eyes blue instead.
If I could I'd draw a heart for you.
Fix it in between the essence of my hands.
Illuminate the arteries until you understand.
I'd paint your hair crimson red.
The end of this halo on your head.
And your eyes.
So hold me close tonight.
And take me with you when you leave.
We'll watch the pieces falling closely into place.
I'll make you believe.
And if I could see the world in different colors,
I'd read it in the air as signals send them through.
But every one is just a different shade of you.
I'd paint your hair crimson red.
The end of this halo on your head.
And your eyes.
