Listen Before Talking

from grow thrive bend break by Ed Muirhead

/

lyrics

Do you have time to listen before talking?
Do you need help to hear the words I say?
Please receive my heart now before walking away.

Do you need time for freedom now you're thinking?
Won't you just follow all the other sheep?
Please believe I'll reach you before sinking too deep.

When I wrote these songs, I was dealing with my feelings
Waiting took too long and praying seemed like stealing.

Do you know if you'll take it any more?
Do you care if you'll make it all the way?
Will you feel like this tomorrow, and struggle through the day?

Do you need time to make up happy endings?
Do you need help to start a brand new page?
Can't you see it's no use pretending we can change?

1999/2001
