Listen (MIDI mp3 file)

Lyrics:

All the things we’re supposed to do
All the things we’re supposed to be
It’s not what you need, not what you get. It’s what you want.

All of the years that have passed me by
All the years coming down the line
It’s not what you need, not what you get. It’s what you want.

Look at me standing out here by myself for all to see.
Waiting for one small push off the shelf.
I can’t believe it, it isn’t like me to be walking this fence.

I’ve heard the call and it’s drowning my ears.
I want to know if it’s heaven that’s near.
It’s not what you need, not what you get. It’s what you want.

Waiting for one small push off the shelf
I can’t believe it, it isn’t like me to be walking this fence

I’ve heard the call and it’s drowning my ears
I want to know if it’s heaven that’s near
It’s not what you need, not what you get. It’s what you want.
It’s not what you need, not what you get. It’s what you want.
It’s what you want. It’s what you want.
