Won't you listen?

You talk and you talk
And you say you’re there to listen
But are you?
I can barely get a word in
Edgewise
I try to fit between your words
But I can hardly find room
You talk and you talk
And say you’re there to listen
But are you?
There are things I would like
To tell you
Questions I would like
To ask you
You talk and you talk
And say you’re there to listen
But are you?
I love to listen
To hear what you have to say
And to spend time with you
But sometimes I need to be heard too
You talk and you talk
And say you’re there to listen
But are you?
Is it maybe
My fault
Because I don’t voice
That I want to be heard?
You talk and you talk
(I don’t and I don’t)
And say you’re there to listen
(I don’t tell you I need you to)
But are you?
(Or am I just not talking?)
