Lori McKenna - Hardly Speaking a Word lyrics

Well I know your life has been hard I see it in your eyes and I feel it in your heart When your eyes move down to the floor And your mouth changes shape, and your voice sounds sore I can hold you close in my arms And tell you that you're special And that you treasure such great charms And that you always keep my heart full But I'm hardly speaking a word I'm hardly speaking a word And I know these things should be heard But I'm hardly speaking a word And your struggle never changes me I'll never be able to see the things you see They say that you see things differently Just because it's different doesn't mean it can't be free But I'm hardly speaking a word I'm hardly speaking a word So I wonder, what do they know Maybe the problem is me not letting go Of a little boy who's smarter than me Who can't sit still and sees things differently And I'm yelling when I should be whispering I'm pushing when I should be carrying And I don't understand anything I've heard I should be yelling I love you But I'm hardly speaking a word So I wonder, what do I know Maybe the problem is me not letting go Of a little boy who's smarter than me Who can't sit still and sees things differently And I'm yelling when I should be whispering And I'm pushing when I should be carrying And I don't understand anything I've heard I should be yelling I love you I should be yelling I love you I should be yelling I love you But I'm hardly speaking a word
