I'm Listening

(Matraca Berg/Ronnie Samoset) You slip into my room So I will not hear you I don't know why you even bother Your every step, your every move Echoes with the silent truth That you have been with another Keep talking I lie here quietly And listen to you breathe And I can tell you're not sleeping You haven't said a word But don't you know I've heard All the secrets you've been keeping Yes I'm listening To every word your heart is saying I'm listening And every time I hear it breaking Keep talking You don't have to say a thing I'm listening And when the morning comes You hide your eyes from the sun 'Cause you know what they'll be saying When you try to hide the truth You know they tell on you And it's a long conversation And I'm listening To every tear that you've been crying I'm listening Oh, they say that you've been lying Keep talking You don't have to say a thing I'm listening Keep talking, babe, 'cause I'm listening I'm listening, yeah I'm listening, whoa Whoa
