Voices Lyrics
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
Hey, it's me again.
Plain, you see again.
Please, can I see you ev'ry day?
I'm a fool again.
I fell in love with you again.
Please, can I see you ev'ry day?
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
Words don't come out right.
I tried to say it, oh, so right.
I hope you understand my meaning.
Hey, it's me again.
I'm so in love with you again.
Please, can I see you ev'ry day?
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
I remember ev'ry word you said. (Word you said.)
I remember voices in my head. (In my head.)
I remember ev'ry word you said. (Word you said.)
Your voices. (I)
Cool voices. (hear)
Warm voices. (your)
It was just what I needed to. (voice.)
Cool voices. (Words)
Warm voices. (don't)
Your voices. (seem)
But it's just what I needed for. (right.)
Warm voices. (Love)
Your voices. (is)
Cool voices. (the)
It was just what I needed to. (word.)
Your voices. (I)
Cool voices. (hear)
Warm voices. (your)
It was just what I needed to. (voice.)
Just what I needed to, just what I needed to,
just what I needed.
You didn't know what you were looking for
'Till you heard the voices in your ear.
You didn't know what you were looking for

My senior yr. in high school I came this close to permforming this song in our school's talent show--just me singing with my choir teacher accompaning me on piano. At the last minute I had to drop out of the show because it conflicted with my after-school job's schedule. Listening to this song 23 yrs. later, I wished I had skipped work that night and sang this song, just me with the piano. Even when I fell in love with this song as a teenager, I could tell even back then my stripped down version for the talent show did this song way more justice than the "Dream Police" version with a full amplified band, a string section, and to my now-very-adult ears, noticing Robin Zander warbling and sounding rather precious in delivering the lyrics. Too bad such a beautiful, tender song had been given that kind of "rock anthem" treatment, thus totally overpowering such a lovely, sweet, yet strongly passionate "power pop" ballad.
To me, this song is about listening to the voices of your spiritual guidance and perhaps being in love with the voices they belong to as well.
this is quite a sweet song... loving someone.. them not seeing it... its so tough to tell a girl you like/love her.. for fear of rejection... but you want to see her everyday and want her to know... yea tru dj
Lyrics that entirely encapsulate the angst of early love - but it doesn't stop there. People of all age have this. Robin's vocals are perfectly fragile when needed and 'balls-on' when necessary. Rick can really write a lovely tune. This is quite lovely and yet not schmaltz. These guys never got the credit they deserved. They had a number of really good songs.
