Ryan Tedder: Listen

Listen to the sound x8
You said that I would be the one
Always making promises
But never live it up
It's a complicated situation
You mixed the birds with the bees and imagination
So we took another chance
The second time was better
But it lacked the romance
Must've tried a thousand times to be
The one you wanted me to be
But it wasn't me, hey
I'll show you that it's real
Let me show you how I feel
The love you gave to me
I thought would last eternally
The promises we made
Was it all a big mistake
Now the thought of touching you
Something I can hold on to
I watched you walk away
Now listen to the sound
Of my heart breaking
I thought that we can make it last
I took out all our problems
And then put them in a glass
Didn't matter 'cause we didn't make it
Put a smile on our faces
And we tried to fake it
But I miss still you the same
Missed seeing your smile
When I said your name
Must've tried a thousand times to be
The one that you wanted me to be
But it wasn't me, hey
I'll show you that it's real
I'll show you how I feel
The love you gave to me
I thought would last eternally
The promises we made
Was it all a big mistake
Now the thought of touching you
Something I can hold on to
I watched you walk away
Now listen to the sound
Of my heart breaking
Listen to the sound
Listen to the sound
Listen to the breaking
Listen to the sound
Listen to the sound
Listen to the breaking
The love you gave to me
I thought would last eternally
The promises we made
Was it all a big mistake
Now the thought of touching you
Something I can hold on to
I watched you walk away
Now listen to the sound
Of my heart breaking
The love you gave to me
I thought would last eternally
The promises we made
Was it all a big mistake
Now the thought of touching you
Something I can hold on to
I watched you walk away
Now listen to the sound
Of my heart breaking
Listen to the sound
