- Just Let Your Heart Listen -

[Verse 1 - your words, slightly smoothed for rhythm] I'm gonna say it from my heart To the heart that listens No expectance here, baby I listen to whom I can I like a like, sure I do But I'd much rather have A chance to be heard I don't even like my voice most days But I'm glad I got one [Pre-chorus - soft build] So I'm layin' down my thinkin' Right here at your feet When your words come a floatin' I just wanna breathe… [Chorus - warm, hopeful lift] Let me stop thinkin' when I listen And just be Just be with you In the quiet between the lines Where the truth don't need no fancy words Just you and me Darlin', just be [Verse 2] You got that light about you Like streetlights after rain Soft gold on the wet pavement Callin' my name again I ain't askin' for forever Just a little tonight Your hand restin' easy In the cradle of mine [Chorus variation] Let me stop thinkin' when I listen And just be Just be in your rhythm Where the blues turn sweet and kind No need to hurry, no need to hide Just you and me, baby Just be [Bridge - extra tender, almost spoken] Maybe tomorrow I'll stumble Maybe my voice'll crack again But right now in this moment I'm not afraid to let it bend… I'm not afraid to let you in (Final Chorus - fade to hush) So I'm gonna keep on sayin' From this heart to yours No expectance, only presence Open every door Let me stop thinkin' when I listen And darlin'… Just be [Outro - slide guitar sighs long and slow] Mmm… just be… Yeah… just be with me… [Instrumental outro to fadeout] [End]
