Cryin' to Be Heard

Somebody's cryin' to be heard And there's also someone who hears every word Sail across the ocean with your back against the wind Listening to nothing save the calling of a bird And when the rain begins to fall, don't you start to curse It may be just the tears of someone that you never heard Reflected in the water is a face that you don't know And isn't it surprising when you find out it's your own? And so you try to find out whether it is friend or foe And what it wants to know, and what it wants to know Well, you're wrapped up in your little world and no one can get in You sit and think of everything, then you wonder where you've been You put the blame on someone that you've hardly ever known And then you realize too late the blame was all your own
