From A Whisper To A Scream

(Alan Toussaint)

From a whisper in the wind

To a loud scream

The message came

That I'd lost you

To the warmth of another man

I've seen more tears fall from your eyes

Than all the showers of April

I took kindness for granted

As if it came with the wallpaper

So inconsiderate of how much you cared

For some stupid reason, I just thought you had to be there

Oh my love

Oh my love

Oh my love

Oh my love

I simply must have been crazy

Or I must have been out of my mind

For me to overlook the need in you

Tell me, how could I have been so blind

Never giving thoughts to your wants and needs

Now I'm begging you please

Oh my love

Oh my love

So inconsiderate of how much you cared

For some stupid reason, I just thought you had to be there

Oh my love

Oh my love

Oh my love
