Paige O'Hara - Listen With Our Hearts lyrics

There are times I think That no one seems to listen There are times I think they listen but don't hear There are times I think they hear But something's missing The thoughts behind the words aren't clear So, I think they're saying something they're not saying They think I mean something I don't mean at all Do we raise our voice miscommunicating? Or simply say nothing at all Is there another way to say it In a way that can be heard? Let me see if I can put it into words I can hear you, you can hear me When we listen with our hearts I understand you, you understand me That's the place where we can start Words of kindness and forgiveness Bring us closer, not apart When we speak our minds And listen with our hearts Her voice invites Her eyes say more than words But her needs and complications Can tear away the memory of last night's girl And if you're weak Yeah we're all weak sometime The best things can wait The best times they come Oh when strength is kind I can hear you, you can hear me When we listen with our hearts I understand you, you understand me That's the place where we can start Words of kindness and forgiveness Bring us closer, not apart When we speak our minds And listen with our hearts And if you can't read her Leave her alone And if you don't know by now She's not someone's prize And you can't take her home I can hear you, you can hear me When we listen with our hearts I understand you, you understand me That's the place where we can start Words of kindness and forgiveness Bring us closer, not apart When we speak our minds When we speak our minds When we speak our minds And listen with our hearts
