Lately you spent a lot of time at parties

Your head held high in a world of make believe

You don't hear a word that I tell you and I can see you no longer care for me

You don't hear a word that I'm saying I may as well be talking to the ceiling

I want you to know how much I love you I talk to you all the time but you don't hear

[ guitar ]

If you'd stop for a minute and listen or you'd save yourself a lot of tears

Your party pals won't love you like I do I try to tell you but you don't hear

You don't hear the word that I'm saying...

I talk to you all the time but you don't hear
