| See the tension in your face | 
| Feel the nerves when we embrace | 
| What emotions do you hide? | 
| All those years of silent thought | 
| betrayed by those whose help | 
| you sought | 
| exiled, lost and forced inside | 
| If you want me | 
| I will listen to your words | 
| The dreams you have deferred | 
| the battles fought | 
| If it helps to | 
| take me to those dark extremes | 
| the meaning of your dreams | 
| the way you’ve thought | 
| Just talk | 
| I’m listening | 
| Just talk | 
| I know your tastes in food and wine | 
| but never really what’s on your mind | 
| What’s going on inside your head? | 
| I hear you say what you can or can’t | 
| I’m never sure what it is you want | 
| There’s always something left unsaidWe ride the waves of joy and fear | 
| I see you on the brink of tears | 
| I never know how you’ll react | 
| Then the sudden laughter rings | 
| The sun is shining, life begins | 
| Happiness could be a fact | 
| I will listen to your hopes | 
| I will listen to your dreams | 
| Anything you want to be | 
| Believe meI will listen to you now | 
| then again and all the while | 
| I wanna see you smile again | 
| Oh, yeah | 
| I’m listening |
