You listening now Paroles

without a soul around

the morning sunlight creeping in

a clock the only sound

I hope you heard a symphony

as you left this world behind

now every note that touches me

brings you to mind



the house filled up with music

the minute you'd come home
and trying to please everybody on earth

not an easy thing to do

when all the time I was only trying

to please you



it seems to me that dying

has set you free somehow

and I know you're out there somewhere

and you're listening now



we said goodbye a long long time

before you had to go

and why that heart stopped beating

I'll never know



a strong and silent teacher

you let the music talk

I learned to sing in harmony

as soon as I could walk

but trying to please everybody on earth

not an easy thing to do

when all the time I was really trying

to please you
