Said I'm looking for a new direction
And I hope a change will come soon
It seems these days
That I've got no direction
No chance for this to come true
And people just seem to see the worst in you
But not me you were always there
They really said, "You're a fool."
People say that you've got no ambition
But I know that's not true

You were biding your own time
And you never fell from grace in my eyes
And you never lost your place in my heart
Just shut up and listen
To what you've been missing 'round town

Do you remember all those conversations
I nearly fell off my stool
How we spent hours in deliberation
I thought the world of you
And I can't put my finger on it
What you said
That people were unfeeling and that love was dead
People say that you've got no ambition
But I know that's not true

You were biding your own time
And you never fell from grace in my eyes
And you never lost your place in my heart
Just shut up and listen
To what you've been missing 'round town

The love that you gave it burned a hole in my soul
You're tongue is like a shocker with the words that you shoot
People say that you've got no ambition
But I know thats not true
You were biding your own time
And you never fell from grace in my eyes
And you never lost your place in my heart
Just shut up and listen
To what you've been missing
Just shut up and listen...
