If Only You Would Listen From School Of Rock

verse 1 You always talk talk talk all the time. You never let me get in a word. I wish I had I had a dime For ev’ry thought I’ve swallowed unheard. No matter what it is that I do It’s like I just can’t seem to get through. I?ve got so much to say If only you would listen. I?ve tried ev’ry which way And still you never listen. Can’t you see I’m hurting? I couldn’t be more clear. But I promise One day I’ll make you hear. verse 2 You know I try try try to explain- I?m not the kid you want me to be. And yet it’s all it’s all in vein-- You just don’t wanna see the real me. You think you know what I’m all about-- And yet you just keep shutting me out! I?ve got so much to share If only you would listen. You could prove that you care If only you would listen. I?m not gonna beg you-- You’ll never see a tear. But I promise one day I’ll make you hear. Bridge Yeah you’ll see one day I?m gonna make you hear me. Gotta find a way But you are gonna hear me. Got so much to say And I’m gonna make you hear me. Maybe then you’ll listen! You gotta listen! You need to listen! You better listen! I?ve got so much inside If only you would listen! Joy and anger and pride If only you would listen! It’s not much I’m asking I only want your ear. Yeah I promise one day I’ll make you hear. It’s not much I’m asking I only want your ear. And I promise one day I’ll shake you So damn hard that at last I’ll wake you Yeah I promise one day I’ll make you hear!
