Elephant Ears - Jimmy Wayne[00:00:00]

Written by：Don Henry/Jimmy Wayne[00:00:01]

She was 9 years old goin' on grown[00:00:13]

Shuffled around from home to home[00:00:19]

And no matter what wherever she went[00:00:28]

She carried with her a stuffed elephant[00:00:34]

And her new family knew she was scared to say I love you[00:00:43]

Cause she thought she'd have to move away again someday[00:00:49]

So she clutched her little friend as they tucked her in and then[00:00:55]

Said it'll be okay all you have to say is elephant ears[00:01:01]

That'll be our code[00:01:13]

When you can't say I love you but you want someone to know[00:01:16]

Sometimes it's what you see and not just what you hear[00:01:22]

So all you have to say is elephant ears[00:01:28]

But they loved that girl like she were their child[00:01:43]

A sad little face became a big smile[00:01:49]

And years passed by while they turned to grey[00:01:58]

She took care of them 'til they passed away[00:02:04]

And in their home sweet home she wondered all alone[00:02:13]

Where memories lined the halls from wall to wall[00:02:19]

And in their old bedroom her old elephant heirloom[00:02:25]

Was sitting on the shelf and she said to herself[00:02:31]

Elephant ears that'll be our code[00:02:40]

When you can't say I love you but you want someone to know[00:02:46]

Sometimes it's what you see and not just what you hear[00:02:52]

So all you have to say is elephant ears[00:02:58]

She stared at their photograph reminiscing all the years[00:03:10]

Then catches her reflection and her eyes fill up with tears[00:03:16]

Oh she cried until she laughed and when she realized instead[00:03:22]

That her lips were forming the words I love you when she said[00:03:28]

Elephant ears that'll be our code[00:03:37]

When you can't say I love you but you want someone to know[00:03:43]

Sometimes it's what you see and not just what you hear[00:03:49]

So all you have to say is elephant ears[00:03:55]
