Preacher / Songwriter

As I listen to your voice
So beautiful and so sad
I can almost feel the way
That you feel tonight
See that girl at front seat
She's already in your hands
And if she sees what you see
She buys your cd tonight

And I pity all you songwriters
Keep singing about love and about tears
Always taking the easy way
Into young people's hearts

Here I am at first row
With the church roof up ahead
And it's so hard to conceal
The way that I feel tonight
But I listen to your voice
So demanding yet so sweet
And now I see what you see
And fall on my knees

And I pity all you preachers
Holding sermons about hell and about sin
Always taking the easy way
To your congregation's heart

Always taking the easy way
Into young people's hearts

Yes I pity all you songwriters
Keep singing about love and about tears
Always taking the easy way
Into young people's hearts

To me you're just like them preachers
Holding sermons about hell and about sin
Always taking the easy way
To your congregation's heart
