Not What I Wanted To Hear Lyrics

(Tom Shapiro/Terri Clark/Chris Waters)

For two weeks I ain't heard the phone ring

Just a warning bell

My friends tell me they know things

I should know as well

I can't deny it

I've been told

A voice inside

Says let you go

But that's not what I wanted to hear

Not what I wanted my heart to say to me

That you'd be long gone

Before too long

And that's not what I wanted to see

'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

But one thing is clear

It's what I needed to know

But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear

Sometimes my intuition

Can get carried away

But right now I'd better listen

To what it has to say

'Cause when I tried to

Believe you're mine

I just got silence

Every time

And that's not what I wanted to hear

Not what I wanted my heart to say to me

That you'd be long gone

Before too long

And that's not what I wanted to see

'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

But one thing is clear

It's what I needed to know

But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear

But that's not what I wanted to hear

Not what I wanted my heart to say to me

That you'd be long gone

Before too long

And that's not what I wanted to see

'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong

But one thing is clear

It's what I needed to know

But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear

Oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
