DON’T LISTEN TO ME, ANYMORE

If I don’t tell you how beautiful you are

If I don’t confess that you mean the world to me

If I ever cease to wipe the tears from your face

To cover you in grace, to shower you with praise

Don’t listen to me, anymore

Don’t listen to me, anymore

If from my lips ever kindness doesn’t run

Like a river to your soul, like an ocean for your heart

If I don’t hold you in the darkness of the night

When everything is not alright, and you’re wearied from the fight

Don’t listen to me, anymore

Don’t listen to me, anymore…anymore…anymore

If I don’t tell you that you could never be replaced

That you could never be erased

No one could ever fill the space

Don’t listen to me, anymore

Don’t listen to me, anymore

If I don’t whisper secrets in your ear

Secrets only you will hear, secrets to allay your fears

Don’t listen to me
