Can Anybody Hear Me

Written by: Neil Diamond and Bill Labounty

You've gotta take your time now
If love is gonna take you by the hand
You need to take your time though
'Cause love is not a thing you can command

There's gotta be a reason
Gotta be a closeness
Gotta have a feeling
Only you can know

And when you find love hold on tight
Don't ever waste another night
You're gonna make it thru in spite of your fears
Can anybody hear me
Is anybody out there

I listen to the river
And hear the river calling out a name
Trying to forgive her
But nothing's gonna ever be the same

There's gotta be a reason
Gotta be a closeness
Gotta have a feeling
Only you can know

And when you find love hold on tight
Don't ever waste another night
You're gonna make it thru in spite of your fears
Can anybody hear me
Is anybody out there

Gotta be a reason
Gotta feel a closeness
Gotta have a feeling
Only you can know it

And when you find love hold on tight
Don't ever waste another night
