Lyrics
CAN YOU HEAR ME Ã?Â? Michel Rae Driscoll
IÃ?Â?VE GOT SOMETHING TO TELL YOU
ARE YOU LISTENING, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
IÃ?Â?M AFRAID TO SAY IT, CUZ IF YOUÃ?Â?RE NOT LISTENING
I MIGHT HAVE TO HOLD IT IN,
CUZ I REALLY DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO SAY IT AGAIN
*YOU, YOU KNOW I NEED YOU
BUT I NEED YOU TO TAKE A LONG HARD LOOK AT YOUR LIFE
I DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO BE YOUR WIDOW I WANT TO BE YOUR WIFE
CAN YOU HEAR ME? THIS TIME? WILL YOU HEAR ME?
BECAUSE I Ã?Â? I DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO SEE WHERE THIS ROAD LEADS
I DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO TELL YOU WHAT TO DO
BUT I NEED TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU DO TO ME
WHEN YOU DONÃ?Â?T HEAR ME
TIME AND AGAIN, TIME AND AGAIN
YOU SAY ITS GONNA CHANGE BUT I DONÃ?Â?T SEE IT PLEASE LET ME SEE IT
Bridge:
ITÃ?Â?S HARD ON MY MIND, MY SOUL, MY HEART
TO KNOW YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL AND YET STILL HERE WE ARE
CAN YOU HEAR ME? PLEASE HEAR ME
*YOU, YOU KNOW I NEED YOU
BUT I NEED YOU TO TAKE A LONG HARD LOOK AT YOUR LIFE
I DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO BE YOUR WIDOW I WANT TO BE YOUR WIFE
CAN YOU HEAR ME? THIS TIME? WILL YOU HEAR ME?
BECAUSE I Ã?Â? I DONÃ?Â?T WANT TO SEE WHERE THIS ROAD LEADS
CAN YOU HEAR ME? THIS TIME PLEASE HEAR ME
