 I listen to your words
 Over and over as if I had not heard.
 Why am I hypnotized?
 What holds me finally realized.

Your voice gives them meaning
 Half way through the day I realize I’m dreaming.
 Can’t say I understand
 Things don’t usually end the way they’re planned.

Listening to your words
 In the dark of silence it all sounds absurd.            
 Lost without the story?
 Turns so clear so deep so true to me.

There’s no other way to say it.
     It is in the sound 
 In the melody
 The voice as it carries.
 There’s no other way to say it.
 Opens the heart
 Pounds the soul
 The heart as it buries.

There is no denying the power
 As it overwhelms and begins to devour.
 The dreams I’ve known forever
 Lie in the softness of light and strength of a feather

There’s no other way to say it.
     It is in the sound 
 In the melody
 The voice as it carries.
 There’s no other way to say it.
 Opens the heart
 Pounds the soul
 The heart as it buries.
