I Thought I'd Heard It All

(album: Love And Honor - 1994)

I heard you cry yourself to sleep and wake up in the night and walk the floor
And I heard you try to tell me something just as I was running out the door
And I heard you say 'I love you' so many times, I can't recall
But until I heard you telling me goodbye, I thought I'd heard it all

Oh, I haven't heard the fortress that I'd built around my ego fall apart
That self destructing unmistaken crying of my own broken heart

And I heard you whisper little things that no one else on earth was meant to hear
And I can't believe it's possible your whispering in someone else's ear
Until tonight, I didn't know how far a grown man could crawl
Oh, until I heard me begging you, I thought I'd heard it all

Oh, I haven't heard the fortress that I'd built around my ego fall apart
That self destructing unmistaken crying of my own broken heart

No, I haven't heard that little voice inside me screaming: Fool what have you done
As my tears start to fall
And I realize the worst is yet to come, well, I thought I'd heard it all
Oh, I realize the worst is yet to come and I thought I'd heard it all
