Hear My Voice
Describe the way life was meant to be
Cuz every day just melts away
To anything
It’s been a while since I think I’ve seen
The way I saw before the flaw
I’ve come to be
Another cloud, another Christmas tree
Another chance gone by, another teardrop cry
For anything
And looking back at how it used to be
Can’t help but wonder why, you and I
Turned out to be
But hear my voice
Take the words I sing
Lift the notes up high
Pretend you want to try
To be with me
Yes, hear my voice
Hear these songs I sing
Try to understand
You’ll never see the man
You want in me
So…
Describe the way life was meant to be
Cuz I don’t want to tip toe dance
Through everything
It’s been so long since I think I’ve seen
The smile upon your eyes, blue crystal skies
And memories
And how it hurts to think the things I think
Another word not said, another beat gone dead
Yeah little things
And thinking back on how it used to be
Well I don’t want to tip toe dance
Through everything
So hear my voice
Hear these words I sing
Cuz I don’t want
To tip toe dance
Through everything
Oh hear my voice
And hear the songs I sing
