I Heard You Singing Lyrics - Singles - Robert Hunter

I heard you singing 

What were you singing when the people got right? 

Were you singing 'Stand And Deliver'? 

Or was it 'Down By The River'? 

 

Were you singing a fine old tune like 'Gone To Glory'? 

Laying it down with grace and power 

Long about the midnight hour 

 

I heard the people all singing 

Like they'd never sung before 

All over the country 

Who could help but stand beside you? 

 

Hello, hello, is there anybody here? 

My knuckles are sore from rapping all day 

I said, "Give me one more chance 

I'd do it for you if I had your way, if I had your way" 

 

What do I know? What do I see? 

Don't know nothing but the name of the game 

It's high-card draw with everything wild 

You bet your life like anyone's child 

What else would you want to do? 

 

I heard the people all singing 

Like they never sung before 

Singing in key and strumming 

Everything they heard from you 

Hello, hello, hello, hello, goodbye 

 

Looking back across the years 

Other matters disappear 

In the murmur I can hear 

Familiar voices loud and clear 

Hello, hello, hello, hello, goodbye 

 

I heard you singing 

Like one last song in the middle of the night 

Were you singing 'In Tongues Of Fire'? 

Or was it 'Knots Of Anger'? 

 

Were you singing a fine old tune like 

'Love Me, Love Me, Love Me Only'? 

Were you caught between the curtains 

Thinking this was too uncertain? 

 

Remember the people were singing 

Like they never sung before 

All over the country 

Did you love the way they loved you? 

 

Ain't no knocker on the last big door 

Just push on the panel and walk on in 

Hello, hello, is there anybody here 

But a two-bit high and a busted mirror? 

Hello, hello, is anybody here? 

My tongue is so sore from rapping all day 

 

Sunshine in the dead on night 

I know that can't be right 

Could it be? I don't know 

But it never done that thing before 

 

So close to my own back door 

It got me wondering what to do 

And the only thing was to come and tell you 

Because I heard you singing, I heard you
