It's Not that I don't hear

It's not that I don't hear the words...

Before, I never believed in them
So I never knew their depth
How they'd reach down inside
Tie roots to my soul

It's that you did
You said them
And now you don't

The words that took me so long to believe, to believe in
The ones that you were the only one to say, ever
And now you don't

And they're nowhere now
May be like me
May be they were never, never were
