I should have know that you were gone back in Germany
You told me in the dark while I was sleeping
Then you slept through the sunrise
As it washed upon your face
And all that I had heard were our hearts beating
Talk to me while I'm listening now
While this love has a voice that we both can hear
Before you let it go
The greatest love I've ever known
Won't you please talk to me while I'm listening
I cannot find a place to put this love away
Or lose the thought of sunlight on your face
I thought I heard your voice
Say I love you today
But it was only the sound of my heart breaking
Talk to me while I'm listening now
While this love has a voice that we both can hear
Before you let it go
The greatest love I've ever known
Won't you please talk to me while I'm listening
How I wish that I could take us back to Germany
And I would stay awake and you would talk to me
Yet for every drop of rain I hear
There's bound to fall another tear
Upon this page of song of my heart aching
Talk to me while I'm listening now
While this love has a voice that we both can hear
Before you let it go
The greatest love I've ever known
Won't you please talk to me while I'm listening
Before you let it go
The greatest love I've ever known
Won't you please talk to me while I'm listening
Talk to me
Please talk to me
