Listen, listen to the snow thats fallin' Doesn't snow here that often, but its comin' down Can you hear, the distant sound of the highway Don't they know that it's not safe, to be leavin' now Some people go and some people stay Nothin' you can say will make 'em change Baby just listen, listen to the words you're sayin' Listen to the hearts you're breakin' Think about the love you're wastin' Baby just listen, listen to the look on my face, in case The words don't make a difference, think of what you're gonna be missin' Baby just listen, listen to the friends that told you Life was too hard to go through, when you're all alone Can you still remember, I was your best defender Now you tell me you don't know whether you're better on your own Oh you're gonna do what you're gonna do, there's nothin' I can say to stop you So baby just listen, listen to the words you're sayin' Listen to the hearts you're breakin' Think about the love you're wastin' Oh baby just listen, listen to the look on my face, in case The words don't make a difference, think of what you're gonna be missin' Oh I know you want your freedom and I know that I'm the reason But I never meant to tie you down Yeah and I don't think I'm gettin' through with anything I said to you So maybe I should shut my mouth Baby just listen, hey Baby just listen Oh baby just listen, listen to the look on my face, in case The words don't make a difference, think of what you're gonna be missin' Oh baby just, listen Hey, baby just listen
