Listen With Our Hearts Lyrics & Chords By Paige O'hara

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
