Lyrics Jimmy Barnes

Jimmy Barnes

Attention

We don’t seem to talk much anymore

It’s getting to hard to egnore

Silence taken place of the words before

If I’d only payed attention

If I’d only heard the call

Even with my good intentions

And somehow I still let you fall

Maybe now you’ll have to face the truth

Well the writings there for the world to see

We could be strangers starting out a new

If you’d only payed attention

Instead of waitin’ for the past

We had it all in our posetion

Still we didn’t make it last

Maybe we could wash it all away

Just like foot prints in the sand

If we could only start it all again

Find a way to understand

Could have been with me baby

If we’d only paid attention

There was truth between the lies

We were trying to find perfection

Instead of leaving love behind

Nothings gonna last for ever

Let’s just never start

We couldn’t save too stormy weather

Stealing time to touch the sun

And if we’d only payed attention

If we’d only payed attention

If only

If only

If only only only

If we only payed attention

Sometimes I wonder what would happen

If we payed attention
