Carole King (born 9 February 1942) is a jewish-american singer-songwriter. She was most active as a singer during the first half of the 1970s, but she was a successful songwriter for considerably longer both before and after this period. Born in 1942 in Brooklyn, New York, Carole Klein (as she was then known) started out playing the piano and then moved on to singing, forming a vocal quartet called the Co-Sines in high school. While attending Queens College, King befriended Paul Simon, Neil Sedaka and Gerry Goffin. Goffin and King soon formed a songwriting partnership, eventually marrying, working in the famous Brill Building, where chart-topping hits were churned out during the 1960s.

I Think I Can Hear You Lyrics

Carole King

I THINK I CAN HEAR YOU
by Carole King

What must i do, how can I serve you
Is it true what I do is the way to be near you
I'm listening, though sometimes I can't hear you.

Looikng around fills me with wonder
At the way you can keep this old world running smoothly
Thinking of you always seems to soothe me

I know you're probably not a aman or a woman
or a time or a season
But I'm here and life is dear
And I guess that'sa good enough reason to say

Just let me do what you put me here to
Let me be what you want me to be
And I hope it'll cheer you
I'm listening and I think I can hear you

Even when I thought I didn't believe
You believed in me
And everyone is a part of you
And anyone can know you
All they've got to do is be
I'm listening, and I think I can hear you.
