Aaron Tessis - Listen

Mommy and daddy always done me right
All the little bumps, little scratches and fights
Taught me be calm, be strong, don't react
Think before you speak and get your matter of facts
Gonna tell you all a secret
Gonna tell you all a secret
The secret to be wise
You just close your mouth
I have seen it in my soul
It looked at me and said, "Hello!
This thingy that you hold
You must let it go
Open up your mind
It's the only way to grow
Listen and you'll find
You've got two ears, one"
Ever since I was a boy I used to run at the mouth
Thought I knew it all beyond a shadow of doubt
Getting into trouble always trying to be good
Until I learned a lesson I thought everyone could
So I'll tell you all my secret
Gonna tell you all a secret
The secret to be wise
You just close your mouth
I have seen it in my soul
It looked at me and said, "Hello!
This thingy that you hold
You must let it go
Open up your mind
It's the only way to grow
Listen and you'll find
You've got two ears, one"
When I wake up in the darkness of my days
There's some part of me that I just can't explain
In the calm and in the chaos of this space
There's a voice that speaks
If you just close your mouth and listen deep
I have seen it in my soul
It looked at me and said, "Hello!
This thingy that you hold
You must let it go
Open up your mind
It's the only way to grow
Listen and you'll find
You've got two ears, one"
I have seen it in my soul
It looked at me and said, "Hello!
This thingy that you hold
You must let it go
Open up your mind
It's the only way to grow
Listen and you'll find
You've got two ears, one mind
Listen and you'll find
Two ears, one sign
Listen and you'll find
You've got two ears, one"
