Tell me something away from trouble and away from doubting Tell me straight from the spirit, from the top of the mountain Let love be the reason between me and you As real as the morning as fresh as the dew If fates got a hold then it's up to you It's a simple thing you've got to do just a listening man Try to understand Just a listening man Doing the best I can Tell me something before I stumble and show my weakness Tell me right on the line why I'm fighting for progress I can hear it there's a sound that's coming through There's a post in the ground so what we gonna do? You can have all your dreams if you really believe in something real, in something true Just a listening man Try to understand Just a listening man Doing the best I can Just a listening man Try to understand Just a listening man Getting carried through this land Tell me something without any lies that cover my feelings Give me time now I understand these lessons have meaning Let love be the reason between me and you As real as the morning as fresh as the dew If fates got a hold then it's up to you It's a simple things you've go to do Just a listening man Try to understand Just a listening man Doing the best I can Just a listening man Try to understand Just a listening man Getting carried through this land
