I Hear Your Voice Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So many nights
Thought that I was doing fine
Thought that time had chased your picture from my mind
So many times
Thought my heart was finally strong
Now I find this heart of mine was so wrong
I thought I'd finally learned to get on with my life
Then it all comes back

[Chorus]
I hear your voice (call)
Your voice (call) x2
The way it used to do
I feel
My heart (fall) x2
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do, I hear your voice

[Verse 2]
So many days
I thought that I could love again
But any fool in love would know that's all pretend
You always seem to find your way
Back in my dreams and I can't break free
[Chorus]
I hear your voice (call)
Your voice (call) x2
The way it used to do
I feel
My heart (fall) x2
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do, I hear your voice

[Bridge]
You know I tried so many times just to forget you
I've tried to walk away from you
Oh girl, it's just no use

[Chorus]
I hear your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Calling me.. calling me the way
I feel my heart (fall)
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do

[Outro][3x]
I hear your voice

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
