1. LISTEN

written by Phillip Smith & Douglas Haines

whispers in silence ~ watchin’ love slowly die ~ they say so much ~ like tears in your eyes ~ good times and whiskey ~ good nights and goodbyes ~ we were always ~ your heart with mine ~ baby just listen ~ while there’s still something there ~ baby just listen and show that you care ~ oh just listen ~ leave this heartache behind ~ bring back what’s missin’ you‘ll find ~ while we still got time ~ what we had then ~ all those promises made don’t let them go baby ~ don't let them fade ~ it hurts like crazy ~ and it’s drivin’ me insane don’t give up on us now ~ don’t walk away ~ baby just listen ~ while there’s still somethin’there ~ baby just listen ~ and show that you care ~ oh just listen ~ leave this heartache behind ~ bring back what’s missing ~ while we still got time ~ i can’t forget you ~ it’s so much harder to see ~ that part of my heart ~ where you used to be ~ i need the difference that you were to me ~ bring your love back, baby just set me free ~ baby just listen while there’s still somethin’ there ~ baby just listen and show that you care ~ oh just listen ~ leave this heartache behind ~ bring back what’s missing ~ while we still got time
