Bruce Hornsby - Listen To The Silence Lyrics
You know I think it's a funny thingPeople talk without listeningPeople listen without hearingI do it all the timeYou know it's a funny phenomenonPeople on their constant runSo obvious to me and yetI never stop to get setListen to the silenceYou might hear what you're looking forHearing nothing but the sound of your mindListen to the silenceA little quiet timeYou just might find what you're afterIf you close your eyesThere's a jackhammer here and a speechmaker thereHere a gun, there a gun, everywhereSee my man go tearing his hairWhen everything's fineI don't pretend to know a lotI'll do the best with what I've gotClear my head and give it a shotTill the stars line up rightListen to the silenceYou might hear what you're looking forHearing nothing but the sound of your mindListen to the silenceA little quiet timeYou just might find what you're afterIf you free your mindThis isn't deep, it's not profoundIt;s just something that I think about nowHad to find a new way aroundThe old way's not rightSelf-help books and the latest movesWho knows what will get you throughDon't know about me, less about youI don't know but I'll tryListen to the silenceYou might hear what you're looking forHearing nothing but the sound of your mindListen to the silenceA little quiet timeYou just might find what you're afterIf you close your eyesIt's a noisy life I'm living right nowBelieve I've done my time in the loudNoisy life I'm living right nowI've played my joyful song with a loud sound
