I Hear Your Voice

Out of the lonely blue

(I... I hear your voice... I) {x2}
I...
(I hear your voice calling in the night... I)
(I can't take it, baby)

I remember just like it was yesterday
I woke up, baby, U were gone
Didn't even wanna carry myself up outta bed
Let alone, I didn't wanna carry on

Cuz I could hear... your voice (I hear your voice calling in the night)
I can't stop it no matter how hard I try (Stop it)
I can hear your sound, your sound (dark) (I hear your sound calling in the dark)
In a word, (baby) I feel like I wanna die (Feel like I wanna die)

I started lookin', lookin' from dusk till dawn
4 ways that I wouldn't miss U so much
I even bought a new dress, but when I put it on (New dress)
I could still, still feel your touch (Still, still feel your touch)

And I can a-hear your voice (I hear your voice calling in the night)
I can't stop it no matter how hard I try (Stop it, no matter how hard I try)
I can a-hear your sound, your sound, your sound (I hear your sound calling in the dark)
In a word, (baby) I feel like I wanna die (Feel like I wanna die)

My friends tell me, they say, "Patti, find a new love
A bird in hand beats 2 in the bush"
What my friends don't know, and I ain't about 2 tell them
Is that U're the only bird, U're the only one that knows what buttons 2 push

It don't take no scientist 2 tell U what's wrong with me
No, no, no, it don't take good vision, 2 see what any fool could see
That I just need your body, I just need your f-f-f-f-f-face
Right where it counts - no, not in another place
I'm talkin' about all up, and all down
Every inch, U see? I don't need 2 cross town (Every inch, U see?
U better read my lips, I need it here with me (Read my lips)
I can't stop it no matter how I try
In a word, I feel like I wanna die (U see)

(I hear your voice)

(I... I hear your voice... I) {x2}
(I hear your voice calling in the night... I)
I... {fade out}
