i thought i'd heard it all

i heard you cry yourself to sleep and wake up in the night and walk the floor

and i heard you try to tell me something just as i was running out the door

and i heard you say 'i love you' so many times

i can't recall

but until i heard you tellin' me goodbye

i thought i'd heard it all

oh

i haven't heard the fortress that i'd built around my ego fall apart

that self destructing unmistaken crying of my own broken heart

and i heard you whisper little things that no one else on earth was meant to hear

and i can't believe it's possible your whispering in someone else's ear

until tonight

i didn't know how far a grown man could crawl

oh

until i heard me begging you

i thought i'd heard it all

oh

i haven't heard the fortress that i'd built around my ego fall apart

that self destructing unmistaken crying of my own broken heart

no

i haven't heard that little voice inside me screaming: fool what have you done

as my tears start to fall

and i realize the worst is yet to come

well

i thought i'd heard it all

oh

i realize the worst is yet to come and i thought i'd heard it all
