When I speak, you listen
When I pause, the listening stops
When I pause, the listening stops
What takes the place of listening?
Stresses of a busy life
a day that hasn't given enough pauses now provides one
a chance for the brain to deal with inertia
before reality snaps back into place

Distractions of the room
maybe I'm wearing an outfit that's cute or odd
I have a hair or 500 out of place
there's something, somewhere, to investigate

Thoughts and reflections
thinking of your place in the words
what could have been said differently
how you might reply
thinking of your place in the words
what could have been said differently
how you might reply
or maybe,
The listening remains
anticipation through the pause
waiting for the next word
hearing the silence unspoken
anticipation through the pause
waiting for the next word
hearing the silence unspoken
How we pause in life
Is often beyond our control
Not always though
Hey hey, I've got something to say
Is often beyond our control
Not always though
Hey hey, I've got something to say
