Stephanie bentley i'm listening lyrics

(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
