Lyrics

Preaching to the Choir

Well I know you have your reasons
And your argument is clear
But I just listen to your voice
You could convince me
Just by blowing in my ear
Honey I have no other choice
You could knock me over with a feather
Strike a match and I'm on fire
If you're trying to make me love you
Honey you're preaching to the choir

Maybe I'm a cynic, probably I'm a skeptic
Often I don't have faith in what they say, but
Every word you breathe, that's what I believe
I wouldn't have it any other way
And I only need a whisper
But you lift your voice up higher
And you're trying to make me love you
But you're preaching to the choir

Preach to me

There's a circle of belonging
In the circle of your face
And everything so true
I long to have you near me
'Cause I love your turn of phrase, but
I never know what you might do
You're so soft in your persuasion
And I'm howling at the moon
You're preaching to the choir
And I'm singing back to you
