Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver - Can You Hear Me Now ( Retro 1938 ) Lyrics

You never listened when I talked
your heart was far away
Your mind was on somebody else
not what I had to say

Can you hear me now sweetheart
now all is said and done
he broke your heart just like I knew
and now he's up and gone
He's left you there to cry alone
He's broken every vow
you never heard my words before
but can you hear me now

you never listened when i said
your more than life itself
was it his love that called to you
or all his worldly wealth

when it came time to leave this earth
you kissed my fevered brow
turned me into a memory
love, can you hear me now

can you hear me now sweetheart
now all is said and done
he broke your heart just like i knew
and now he's up and gone
He's left you there to cry alone
He's broken every vow
you never heard my words before
but can you hear me now
