Nanci Griffith - Talk To Me While I'm Listening lyrics

I should have known that you were gone back in Germany You told me in the dark while I was sleeping Then you slept through the sunrise As it washed across your face And all that I had heard were our hearts beating Talk to me while I'm listening While this love has a voice that we both Can hear Before you let it go... This greatest love I've ever known Won't you please Talk to me While I'm listening I cannot find a place to put this love away Or lose the thought of sunlight on your face I thought I heard your voice Say I love you today But it was only the sound of my heart beating Talk to me while I'm listening While this love has a voice that we both Can hear Before you let it go... This greatest love I've ever known Won't you please Talk to me While I'm listening How I wish that I could take us back to Germany I would stay awake and you would talk to me Yet for every drop of rain I hear There's bound to fall another tear Upon this page of song of my heart aching Talk to me while I'm listening While this love has a voice that we both Can hear Before you let it go... This greatest love I've ever known Won't you please Talk to me While I'm listening Before you let it go... This greatest love I've ever known Won't you please Talk to me While I'm listening Talk to me Talk to me
