Listen (From the Motion Picture "Dreamgirls")

Listen

To the song here in my heart

A melody I've start

But can't complete

Listen

To the sound from deep within

It's only beginning

To find release

Oh

The time has come

For my dreams to be heard

They will not be pushed aside and turned

Into your own

All cause you won't

Listen

Listen

I am alone at a crossroads

I'm not at home

In my own home

And I tried and tried

To say whats on my mind

You should have known

Oh

Now I'm done believing you

You don't know what I'm feeling

I'm more than what you made of me

I followed the voice

You gave to me

But now I gotta find my own

You should have listened

There is someone here inside

Someone I'd thought had died

So long ago

Screaming out

For my dreams to be heard

They will not be pushed aside or worse

Into your own

All cause you won't

Listen

I don't know where I belong

But I'll be moving on

If you don't

If you won't

LISTEN

To the song here in my heart

A melody I've start

But I will complete

Oh

Now I'm done believing you

You don't know what I'm feeling

I'm more than what you made of me

I followed the voice you think you gave to me

But now I gotta find my own

My ownn
