So you better wake up
Pay attention to me
I need to talk
And you need to see
What I've been feeling
Got so much inside
You know you've been stealing
My peace of mind
You never take the time to listen - oh no
You never take the time to care - oh
Hear me - I'm talking to you
Hear me - I wanna tell you the truth
Hear me, hear me - that's all I want
I'm like everyone else
I need more than love
Need to know you're a friend
Someone I can count on
Somebody to laugh with
Someone to cry
Somebody to live with
Not die
You gotta take the time to listen - oh yeah
You gotta take the time to care - oh
Hear me - I'm talking to you
Hear me - I wanna tell you the truth
Hear me, hear me - that's all I want - all!
Hear me - I'm hurting inside
Hear me - you better treat me right
Hear me - you're gonna lose me if you don't
Oh hear me - I'm talking to you
Hear me - I'm talking to you oh
Hear me - I'm talking to you
Hear me - I wanna tell you the truth
Hear me, hear me - that's all I want - all!
Hear me - I'm hurting inside
Hear me - you better treat me right
Hear me - you're gonna lose me if you
Hear me - you're gonna lose me if you don't
Hear me - I'm talking to you
Hear me - I wanna tell you the truth
Hear me, hear me - that's all I want - all!
Hear me... hear me... hear me!
