Listening
David Hallyday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
After all the years I would not hear, I'm listening
As I'm lookin' into eyes so clear and deep,
I see, the story comin' together
Chapters end and start again...
Listening
To the only one who undestands the man I am
With love enough to let go of the past
I can do the same for you
If you
Listen to my eyes
Listen to your heart
Never let the world's noise
Get louder than your own voice
Listen to my touch
Then touch the way you feel
You only hear
What is real
By listening
Like the mountain lets the ocean slowly move him
Or the way that your body's moving mine
In time, this dance will go on forever
Without a sound, we turn around...
Listening
Listening
After all the years I would not hear, I'm listening
As I'm lookin' into eyes so clear and deep,
I see the story comin' together
I know in time this dance will go on forever
