In My Ears - Keanler

It was a song that I heard once at a party They played it way too loud, eventually the cops came (oh) You are the ringing in my ears You are the sound of it as it gets hard to hear You are the ringing in my ears New life's beginning but you are the ringing I was an island in the middle of the ocean No one could find the place and so it stays unbroken Like any man, who was born upon that white sand It's hard to sleep at night when I'm capsized on dry land There is a burden on my feet The kind of blisters where it's hard to walk for weeks There is a burden on my feet The world keeps turning but, there is a burden And I wanted you to hear To find whatever's strong enough and see yourself more clear And I wonder how it sounds We'll hear each other's voice when the other's not around You are the ringing in my ears You are the sound of it as it gets hard to hear You are the ringing in my ears New life's beginning but, you are the ringing (ooh) You are the ringing in my ears I love the sound of it as it gets hard to hear You are the ringing in my ears New life's beginning but, you are the ringing It was a song that I heard once at a party

You told me you don't love me when you walked out the door I stood there feelin' lonely, then the tears began to pour What else could I do? I'd never felt like that before So I cried an ol' blue river in the middle of the floor Now I'm up to my ears in tears I'm cryin' night and day since you went away The things you used to say, honey, I no longer hear That water's cold and clear, I'm drownin' for you, dear Up to my ears in tears Well, I found some old love letters you wrote me years ago But the words all ran together when the tears began to flow 'Cause you left that water runnin', now it's got nowhere to go If I can't wash away your memory guess I'll just go under slow 'Cause I'm up to my ears in tears I'm cryin' night and day since you went away The things you used to say, honey, I no longer hear That water's cold and clear, I'm drownin' for you, dear Up to my ears in tears Yeah, I'm up to my ears in tears I'm cryin' night and day since you went away The things you used to say, honey, I no longer hear That water's cold and clear, I'm drownin' for you, dear Up to my ears in tears Yeah, that water's cold and clear I'm drownin' for you, dear Up to my ears in tears
