I heard you singing

What were you singing when the people got right?

Were you singing

Stand and

Deliver?Or was it

Down by the

River?Were you singing a fine old tune like

Gone to Glory?

Laying it down with grace and power

Long about the midnight hour

I heard the people all singing

Like they'd never sung before

All over the country

Who could help but stand beside you?

Hello, hello - is there anybody here?

My knuckles are sore from rapping all day

I said: Give me one more chance

I'd do it for you if

I had your way

If I had your way

What do I know?

What do I see?

Don't know nothing but the name of the game

It's high-card draw with everything wild

You bet your life like anyone's child

What else would you want to do?

I heard the people all singing

Like they never sung before

Singing in key and strumming

Everything they heard from you

Hello, hello, hello, hello ... goodbye

Looking back across the years

Other matters disappear

In the murmur

I can hear

Familiar voices loud and clear

Hello, hello, hello, hello ... goodbye

I heard you singing

Like one last song in the middle of the night

Were you singing in tongues of fire

Or was it knots of anger?

Were you singing a fine old tune like

Love Me, Love

Me, Love Me

Only?Were you caught btween the curtains

Thinking this was too uncertain?

Remember ... the people were singing

Like they never sung before

All over the country

Did you love the way they loved you?

Ain't no knocker on the last big door

Just push on the panel and walk on in

Hello, hello, is there anybody here

But a two-bit high and a busted mirror?

Hello, hello - is anybody here?

My tongue is so sore from rapping all day

Sunshine in the dead on night

I know that can't be right

Could it be?

I don't know

But it never done that thing before

So close to my own back door

It got me wondering what to do

And the only thing was to come and tell you

Because -

I heard you singing -

I heard you
