Listen With Our Hearts Lyrics - Singles - 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
