If You Would’ve Listened

You had my attention, had my interest too

We shared so much—faith and culture, me and you

Late night talks, laughs we couldn’t fake

But you moved too fast, girl, that was your mistake

You talked a lot, but never heard my heart

I tried to guide you, but you missed that part

I laid it out, truth on the line

But you kept acting like you were always right

If you would’ve listened, we could’ve been

More than a moment lost in sin

But you chose the noise, not the still small voice

You had a choice, you had a choice

I needed grace, I needed truth

Not the games and the wild pursuits

I want a woman who walks in light

Not just one who shines at night

You begged me twice, said you’d make it right

But came back dressed in lust, not in the light

You thought seduction would make me stay

But I need more than curves to lead the way

I need a heart that’s humble and whole

Not a soul that’s chasing the world’s control

A spirit quiet, gentle and wise

Not the drama and the endless lies

If you would’ve listened, we could’ve grown

Built something real, made faith our home

But you held tight to pride and pain

Still pointing fingers, never taking blame

I want a woman of truth and peace

Not one lost in the club till three

I needed love that reflects His face

Not a life that’s running from His grace

You say I’m judging, but I just see

The man I am, and what I need

A partner walking hand in hand

Not a rebel chasing every trend

So I’m letting go, I’m setting free

The dream I had for you and me

If you ever change, come back to Him

But I can’t wait where sin begins

I want a woman who fears the Lord

Not one still chasing this world’s rewards

If you would’ve listened… you might’ve been the one.
