Listen Close
Whispers of Wisdom: Embrace the Melody of Life with Jonah Smith's 'Listen Close'
Lyrics
I can only say these words one time
There's only one chance to express these words
So listen close
Pay close attention as it's important
I can only say these words one time
Reiteration of the limited opportunity to convey these words
So listen close
Emphasizing the need for attentive listening
Sing to me
Request to sing directed towards someone
Just like the birds
Comparing the request to sing to the carefree nature of birds
No one's ever said wiser words
Recognition of the wisdom in the song
I can only sing this song one time
Stating the limitation of singing this song just once
So listen close
Reiterating the importance of attentive listening due to the song's singular performance
I can only sing this song one time
Repetition of the idea that the song will be sung only once
So listen close
Emphasizing the need for focused attention while the song is being sung
Run with me
Invitation to run together without making noise
Don't make a sound
Emphasis on keeping silent while running
We've got to keep our ears to the ground
Importance of staying alert and attentive
Tell me what I need to know
Request for necessary information or guidance
Tell me what I need to know
Repetition of the plea for information
I will listen close
Commitment to listen attentively to the information provided
Tell me what I need to know
Reiteration of the request for essential information
Tell me what I need to know
Repetition of the plea for guidance or knowledge
I will listen close
Commitment to pay close attention to the information shared
I can only say these words one time
Restating the limited opportunity to express these words
So listen close
Emphasizing the necessity of attentive listening once again
