Stop Listening
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm happy to be here I'm happy to be with you
For where in a lifetime do we do the things we really want to
Now old friends they watch lovers, they wonder where we're goingto
They know each look from the other and they accuse you, accuseyou
It's on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
Don't do this to me, stop listening, start calling my name
Stop turning from me, start feeling I'm here, stop listening keepholding me
I'm happy to lie here, well, I'm happy to touch your face
I've got nothing to fear here so these feelings, they cannot beplaced
Oh, why do you never listen? what do you ever want?
It's funny how I feel like, some kind of person
Another kind of person I would never like to be
Your on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
Can't do this to you, stop listening, I keep calling your name
I'm not turning from you, start feeling I'm here, stop teasing mekeep holding me
You can be fragile I don't care I'll always be there
Can't do this to you, stop listening, I keep calling your nameyes I do
I'm not turning from you, start feeling I'm here, stop teasing mekeep holding me
