LISTEN TO THE SOUNDS

LISTEN TO THE SOUNDS,
                                  A LONELY NIGHT CAN MAKE...
LISTEN TO THE SOUNDS,
                                  THAT MAKE MY HEART BREAK....



CHILDREN RUNNING,LAUGHING,SINGING,
                                   CRYING, FLYING KITES...
BIRDS AND BOOKS AND DRINKING BEER,
                                   AND DANCING HALF THE NIGHT,
WONDERING WHAT I SHOULD WEAR,
                                    TO PLEASE HER CAN'T BE LATE,
WALKING, TALKING,HOLDING HER CLOSE,
                                    HOPING SHE WON'T HESITATE...

NOW THE CHILDREN SIT IDLE STARING,
                                    WONDERING WHAT HAS CHANGED....
THE SCATTERED BOOKS NAD SILENT BIRDS,
                                     MY LIFE NOW REARRANGED....
WONDERING, WORRYING,SEARCHING, ASKING,
                                     HURT CONSTANTLY.....
WHERE AND WHEN AND WHY SHE'S GONE,
                                      AND WHY SHE TURNED FROM ME.....



I'M LISTENING TO MY PRAYERS,
                                      SENT TO THE LORD ABOVE....
LISTENING TO THE SOUNDS,
                                       THAT MEANT WE WERE IN LOVE...
I'M LISTENING TO THE SOUNDS,
                                        A LONELY NIGHT CAN MAKE...
LISTENING TO THE SOUNDS,
                                        THAT MAKE MY HEART BREAK.......
