Boz Scaggs I Don`t Hear You Lyrics

I Don`t Hear You Lyrics

The blue light flashes, Billy feels its motion

He says, "Should I go and set it free?"

Black-eyed Suzie picks up on the notion

She says, "Put it in the lonely tree"



He says, "Babe, babe

We best sharpen our imagination"

He says, "It seems like the rest

Don't comprehend the situation"



I don't hear you

All the words that come and go, don't say what I'm after

I don't hear you

Scream it through a microphone, whisper in a deadly tone

Don't hear you, uh hum, not you



Jane's a dancer in quiet desperation

She says, "What I give I give for free"

Her twin sister feels the same sensation

But says, "You must buy it all from me"



She says, "Oh I feel best

When the rest is all uncertain"

She says, "Thoughts in my breast

Just hang there like a burning curtain"



I don't hear you

You don't matter, you don't care, I don't call that living

I don't hear you

What you say don't reach inside, it is like you're gagged and tied

I don't hear you



He said, "Go with the flow

Though the currents can bring danger"

You didn't know

You were dancing with a desperate stranger"



I don't hear you

I've been dealing with deaf ears, I don't need no laughter

I don't hear you

It ain't hard to analyze, I know what you're really after

I can't hear you
