|
See the tension in your face |
|
Feel the nerves when we embrace |
|
What emotions do you hide? |
|
All those years of silent thought |
|
betrayed by those whose help |
|
you sought |
|
exiled, lost and forced inside |
|
If you want me |
|
I will listen to your words |
|
The dreams you have deferred |
|
the battles fought |
|
If it helps to |
|
take me to those dark extremes |
|
the meaning of your dreams |
|
the way you've thought |
|
Just talk |
|
I'm listening |
|
Just talk |
|
I know your tastes in food and wine |
|
but never really what's on your mind |
|
What's going on inside your head? |
|
I hear you say what you can or can't |
|
I'm never sure what it is you want |
|
There's always something left unsaid |
|
We ride the waves of joy and fear |
|
I see you on the brink of tears |
|
I never know how you'll react |
|
Then the sudden laughter rings |
|
The sun is shining, life begins |
|
Happiness could be a fact |
|
I will listen to your hopes |
|
I will listen to your dreams |
|
Anything you want to be |
|
Believe me |
|
I will listen to you now |
|
then again and all the while |
|
I wanna see you smile again |
|
Oh, yeah |
|
I'm listening |
