Testo di Half Listening

I rearranged the furniture While you read me the riot act I counted the pints on the doorstep While you told me the things I lacked I drove you nearly mad with rage As I sat and quietly tore the page Into tiny little pieces Whilst you held centre stage Chorus: Half listening my mind is far away Half listening half an ear on what you say I contemplated the garden And the plants that I'd like to grow While you shrieked about the business And how little they all know I tidied up the garden shed Whilst you called me a dunderhead Not a thought you left unsaid As I pondered quietly I know your doubts I know your fears I know your laughter and your tears Together we've come through all these years And I love you as you are Half listening your mind if far away Half listening half an ear on what I say
