I was playing a few minor 7th chords on a Fender Strat and the song took off from there.

Till I hear you whisper

(c) 2007 Anthony J. Spinella



Verse
Well I see her
feel love when she’s near me.
Knowing her
and feeling no pain.

Pre-hook
And I’ll hide there
till I hear you whisper.
Telling me that
I’m okay, no hurt inside.

Verse
And I know fear
when you’re not around me.
Watching time
slowly passing me by.

Pre-hook
Can you hear the wind behind me.
Can you see that I’ll always be around.

Bridge
When I bring you home for my family to meet, I get looks like I must be in a dream.
But I know deep down inside
they still think you can’t be
what I need.

Verse
Tell lies
to all those around me.
Knowing them
and how they all feel.




Pre-hook
And I’ll hide there till I hear you whisper.
Telling me that I’m OK no hurt inside .

Verse
Don’t you
know the world I live in.
Never change
The way I’ll always feel

Pre-hook
Can you hear the wind behind me.
Can you see that I’ll always be around.
