Harry Connick - Hear Me in the Harmony lyrics

The city don't even matter I could be anywhere I don't care There's a whole lotta hard workin people That could take my place And it's easy to leave When nobody knows your face Just close your eyes You can hear me in the harmony I came up in New Orleans Fixin what I could find To peace my mind I gave what I had to the winners Just to get along But it's really hard to sing When nobody hears your song Just close your eyes You can hear me in the harmony I thought I learned from getting burned I bought a suit of armor and a silver cane I found a little man who'd be proud of me But he had to get up early And I had to get back to my pain I guess I'll keep on livin One day they'll ask for me I'll be free And if there's a heaven I'll be ready for my life to begin But I wonder if I call If they're gonna let me in Open your eyes You can hear me in the harmony
