Lyrics Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson

The Sounds

I can hear a heartbeat

It seems a little strong

I can hear the things

That I did wrong

I can hear a song

By looking in her eyes

I can hear all

The times she cried

I can hear the memory

As they echo off the wall

Falling from the pictures

Down the hall

I can hear regret

Building up inside of me

I can hear all them things

I could not see

Those are the sounds of a woman leavin'

Stronger than a wind in the willow tree

Those are the sounds of a heart breakin'

You can't hear it but the noise is killin' me

I should have heard it comin'

But I chose to pretend

I should have recognized

That sound way back then

But I just wouldn't listen

And didn't want to all those years

Now the truth is is ringin' clear

In my ears

Those are the sounds of a woman leavin'

Stronger than a wind in the willow tree

Those are the sounds of a heart breakin'

You can't hear it but the noise is killin' me

Those are the sounds of a heart breakin'

You can't hear it but the noise is killin' me

I can hear it

And the silence is killin' me...
