Not 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 think that you're afraid of something real
Afraid of what your tired heart might feel
Afraid to let go, look me in the eye
I'm standing right here, don't let this pass you by
All that you were to say, I put you back together
So let your worries go, tonight is not forever
It's not that difficult to be so typical
Come on, don't try to fight it
You're not listening to me anyway
You like to sing along like it's your favorite song
You're not listening to a word I say
You're gonna sing along you're right where you belong
Whoa whoa whoaooo, whoa whoa whoaooo
You're not listening to me anyway
You're gonna sing along you're right where you belong
I'm in complete control, it's irresistible
So many lights and sounds, so many beating hearts around
It'd take you by surprise, it left the fire ignited
Come on, don't try to fight it
You're not listening to me anyway
You like to sing along like it's your favorite song
You're not listening to a word I say
You're gonna sing along you're right where you belong
Whoa whoa whoaooo, whoa whoa whoaooo
You're not listening to me anyway
You're gonna sing along you're right where you belong
Whoa whoa whoao, whoa whoa whoao
Whoa whoa whoao, whoa whoa whoao
You're not listening to me anyway
You like to sing along like it's your favorite song
You're not listening to a word I say
You're gonna sing along
Whoa whoa whoaooo, whoa whoa whoaooo
You're not listening to me anyway
You're gonna sing along you're right where you belong
