I Can't Hear the Music Lyrics

He showed me there was more to me,
When I thought I had nothing else to give.
God, knows, he wasn't perfect,
Ah, but then again, nobody is.
He always told me the truth,
No matter how hard it was to hear.
When he'd say, ''I believe in you.''
That was music to my ears.

Oh, each word's like a note,
Like a beautiful tune,
The kind that inspires,
And helps you get through.
Oh, if I said, ''I can't.''
He'd say, ''You can.''
He was my toughest critic,
Oh, an' my biggest fan.
Now he's gone to a distant shore,
And I can't hear the music anymore.

Sometimes, late at night,
I'll forget that he's not lyin' next to me.
He maybe out of sight,
But out of mind is something he won't ever be.
Things that he said to me,
Are still ringin' out loud and clear.
When he said, ''I love you, baby.''
That was music to my ears.

Oh, each word's like a note,
Like a beautiful tune,
The kind that inspires,
And helps you get through.
Oh, if I said, ''I can't,''
He'd say, ''You can.''
He was my toughest critic,
Oh, an' my biggest fan.
Now he's gone to a distant shore,
Oh, and I can't hear the music anymore.

And I can't hear the music...
