Josh Joplin Group - Listening Lyrics
And she lies, quietly, amid her empty roomAnd probes her open heart, to verify the woundShe receives the phone callShe rewinds the message tapeShe walks to the windowLet your sweat pour down the fire escapeChorus:I am listening to youI am listening to youYou don't say a wordYou don't have toFrozen in the hour, the thought of going onFeels real and unreal, until the feelings goneLike a boy who begs for breadA snapshot is all there isTo remind us of our placeAnd return us to the hungry massesChorusAnd she lies motionlessBeneath the ceiling fanThe blades become invisibleAnd she becomes entrancedNo one knows the futureNo one cares about the pastWhen a star is dyingWe all cling to what cannot lastI am listening to youI am listening to youI am listening to youI am listening to you
