Listen to me, girl!

He told me that he loved you
But when he tried to write
Words didn't seem enough

Listen to me, girl!

He said each breath was torture -
Each breath he drew without you,
Each day seemed like a lie

Listen to me, girl!

I know his heart's wide open
And if you should get lost -
Don't wonder where you are

Listen to me, girl!

I hope you'll always know that
If all is gone and over,
You're safe inside his mind...
