Joan Armatrading - To Anyone Who Will Listen Lyrics

To anyone who will listen
Please hear what I say
Turn off your judgment, try to understand
How this lonely heart breaks, how these tears start to fall
I need your help to heal my troubled mind

To anyone who will listen
To all the possibilities
Just give me the chance to breathe, to catch my breath
'Cause I'm trying my very best

I'm seeking your comfort, the pressure's released
Just by being here with you
The days are not long
The chance to tell my story heals this blue heart
Like medicine, you cure my sleepless nights

To anyone who will listen
To all the possibilities
Just give me the chance to breathe, to catch my breath
'Cause I'm trying my very best

Be a friend to me in my despair
Be the friend who never asks why
Even when our conversation is strained
You won't walk out on me
Don't walk out on me

To anyone who will listen
To all the possibilities
Just give me the chance to breathe, to catch my breath
'Cause I'm trying my very best

To anyone who will listen
Just give me the chance to breathe, to catch my breath
'Cause I'm trying my very best
