The Sounds

Alan Jackson

I can hear her heartbeat
It seams a little strong
I can hear the things that I did wrong
I can hear her thoughts
By looking in her eyes
I can hear all the times she cried

I can hear the memories
As they echo off the wall
Falling from the pictures down the hall
I can hear regret
Building up inside of me
And I can hear all the things I could not see

And those are the sounds of a woman leaving
Stronger then the wind in a willow tree
Those are the sounds of a heart breaking
You can't hear it
But the noise is killing me

I should've heard it coming
But I chose to pretend
I should've recognized that sound way back then
I just wouldn't listen, didn't want to all those years
Now the truth is ringing clearly in my ears

And those are the sounds of a woman leaving
Stronger then the wind in a willow tree
And those are the sounds of a heart breaking
You can't hear it
But the noise is killing me

Those are the sounds of a heart breaking
You can't hear it 
But the noise is killing me
I can hear it and the silent 
Is killing me
