Amy Grant - What You Heard Lyrics

We must look like a couple of strangers Sitting in a quiet room You've been studying the patterns on the carpet I've been studying you You kept building higher walls I kept busting through We've been on this same road together But somehow got a different view

I thought I was telling you I love you I thought I could make it up with words I was trying so hard to reach you but that's not what you heard

I must sound like a broken old record Needle stuck in the groove Saying the same thing over and over Trying to get a message through Damn these words I've always trusted Wound up hurting you It's only in the aftermath We see the damage they can do

I thought I was telling you I love you I thought I could make it up with words I was trying so hard to reach you but that's not what you heard

Now I'm feeling every mile between us And I wonder if I'll ever learn That it doesn't matter how I mean it If that's not what you heard

I thought I was telling you I love you I thought I could make it up with words I was trying so hard to reach you but that's not what you heard

Now I'm feeling every mile between us I wonder if I'll ever learn That it doesn't matter how I mean it If that's not what you heard

No, it doesn't matter how I mean it If that's what you heard
