Lyrics for With You I Can Hear My Own Voice
Everyone I tried to love Sang the same old song A choir of "Why don't you love me's" Drowned out my own voice until it was gone Every "I love you" was a question It was loaded like a shotgun But with you With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants With you, I hear its response It's complete renaissance What used to be so mute Now speaks in tongues Now when I've learned how to use it Every syllable is music Oh, with you With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants, oh, oh With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants So thank you Thank you for listening Thank you Thank you for listening For letting me take the lead While you gently harmonize With me With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants With you, I can hear my own voice With you, I can hear my own heart With you, I can hear what it wants
