I'm Listening
Written by - 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 talkin'

I lie here quietly
And listen to you breathe
And I can tell you're not sleepin'
You haven't said a word
But don't you know I've heard
All the secrets you've been keepin'

Yes, I'm listenin'
To every word your heart is sayin'
I'm listenin'
And every time I hear it breaking
Keep talkin'
You don't have to say a thing
I'm listening

And when the mornin' comes
You hide your eyes from the sun
'Cause you know what they'll be sayin'
When you try to hide the truth
You know they tell on you
And it's a long conversation

And I'm listenin'
To every tear that you've been cryin'
I'm listenin'
Oh, they say that you've been lyin'
Keep talkin'
You don't have to say a thing
I'm listening

Keep talkin', babe
'Cause I'm listening
I'm listening
I'm listenin', yeah
I'm listenin', whoa
Whoa, oh oh
Whoa, oh oh
