Listen To ME
I hear what you say
Listen to me
But do I hear what you mean
For everyone is different
In what they hear and see
So when you hear what someone says
listen very close
How they say it
Why they say it
and when they say it most
Because what they say can mean several things
You may not change a word
But it can be completely different
just the way it's heard
Listen to me

Reminds me
of a comment I have made to life:
I always say just what I mean,
mean seldom what I say.
