Listening Songtext
von Sam Patch

I opened up
You were saying who you were
Standing there
I thought you were a cure
But I should have known
I′d have looked the other way
What you say won't make it go away

When I′m listening
I'm listening
I'm listening
What did you say?


Don′t take long for the concrete to set
It′s not the time to slow it down yet
But I got a plan
It never ends
If you want to know I'll say it again
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
I′m listening

By the time that I looked up and saw where we were
The card-stopping engine ceased in a blur
The thoughts came rushing into my head
The whole time I thought I'd been listening
You told me go back where you were
And our paths would cross for sure
Well I stood and stared looking for another way
I stood and stared couldn′t make it go away

When I was listening
I was listening
I was listening
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
I was listening


By the time that I looked up and saw where we were
The sentimental noises were wearing pretty thin
And the card-stopping engine ceased in a blur
Now every time I look up I'm staring in the night
And every time I look down I′m staring in my hands
The whole time I know I've been listening
The whole time I know I've been listening

You won′t carry me
