*: I'm listening to the conversation,
   Cm              As
   Judge and jury in my head.
   Cm              As
   It's colouring everything,
   Cm      B      As
   All we did and said.

   Cm
   And still I hear that,
   As
   Sharp tongue talking,
   Cm       As
   Talking tangled words.
   Cm               As
   I can sense the danger,
   Cm     B     As
   Just listen to the wind.

2. I want you close,
   I want you near,
   I can't help but listen,
   But I don't want to hear.
   Hear that voice a-gain.

   I want to be with you,
   I want to be clear.
   But each time I try,
   It's the voice I hear.
   I hear that voice a-gain.

*2: I'm hearing right, and wrong so clearly,
    There must be more than this.
    It's only in uncertainty,
    That we're naked and alive.
   
    I hear it through,
    The rattle of a streetcar,
    Hear it through, the things you said,
    I can get so scared,
    Listen to the wind.
