Michael Nesmith
Listening
[Verse 1]
Sometimes thoughts coincidental
With activities quite simple
In consideration, seem to be quite meaningless
Yet, hoping for the best
I listen for the rest

[Verse 2]
Listening to find a way
To overcome earthbound decay
Still, I'm classifying these ideas that come to me
Into those that I can see
And those that I can feel

[Bridge]
It seems it should be so easy to do
The things that I am led to do
But conviction and courage
Sometimes drift apart
And takes me back to the start

[Verse 3]
Sometimes thoughts coincidental
With activities quite simple
In consideration, seem to be quite meaningless
And yet, hoping for the best
I listen for the rest
