not what i wanted to hear

Singer: terri clark

for two weeks i ain't heard the phone ring

just a warning bell

my friends tell me they know things

i should know as well

i can't deny it

i've been told

a voice inside

says let you go

but that's not what i wanted to hear

not what i wanted my heart to say to me

that you'd be long gone

before too long

and that's not what i wanted to see

'cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

but one thing is clear

it's what i needed to know

but

oh-it's not what i wanted to hear

sometimes my intuition

can get carried away

but right now i'd better listen

to what it has to say

'cause when i tried to

believe you're mine

i just got silence

every time

and that's not what i wanted to hear

not what i wanted my heart to say to me

that you'd be long gone

before too long

and that's not what i wanted to see

'cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

but one thing is clear

it's what i needed to know

but

oh-it's not what i wanted to hear

but that's not what i wanted to hear

not what i wanted my heart to say to me

that you'd be long gone

before too long

and that's not what i wanted to see

'cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

but one thing is clear

it's what i needed to know

but

oh-it's not what i wanted to hear

oh-it's not what i wanted to hear
