Whenever you've had a problem,
babe, I've tried to help you find a solution.
But no matter what it is that I suggest,
to you it's just air pollution.
I've learned, baby, slowly, over the years,
that what you really want is my ears.
I'm here to listen to everything you say and
pay attention. I'll never look away
I'll put down my guitar and turn off the
TV. I'm here to listen, understand,
Whenever you've had a bad day, babe,
I've tried to make you feel good again

put down my guitar and turn off the
I'm here to listen to everything you say and pay attention,
I'll never look away, I'll
Put down my guitar and turn on the
I'm here to listen, understand,
Who needs your girlfriend
Why pay for a shrink when
I'm here to listen, understand,
