Michael Goldberg — Hear My Heart (A Song for Asher) lyrics

Lyrics

A hush befell our empty room,
The news was too much for me too soon.
With my head in my hands
I tried to understand,
How this could have happened to you?

And nothing ever really made sense...
Trying to sort through the anger
And get things off my chest.
All my dreams seemed to fade away,
Afraid your voice might only be a memory
In this silent parade.

But if you could hear my heart,
Bursting with love for you,
If you could hear my heart,
Then you'd know these words won't do.

We took you home thinking things might change
But learned nothing would ever be the same.
We did our best to give you all we had,
A loving home, a caring mom and dad.
Afraid your life might be full of pain,
Wondering if you'd ever hear your name
When we called out to you.

But if you could hear my heart,
Bursting with love for you
If you could hear my heart,
Then you'd know no words would do.

And it tore my heart out,
I cried my eyes out,
Just hoping you'd turn your head.

Every night I prayed
There'd come a day
That you would hear me sing to you.

If you could hear my heart,
Bursting with love for you
If you could hear my heart,
Then you'd know no words would do.
