Lyrics

Nothing more to say than silence
The last thing that we?ll share
We?ve said everything that matters
We have heard what we want to hear
I have loved you much
If not always well
I haven?t always cared for you
But always will
These are things I keep silent
Things I hope you know
Things that in the silence gather
And in the stillness grow
I forgot your touch
But I love you even now
In the silence here I?m sorry
But I can?t get it out

I see you at the kitchen table
Paying bills with the radio on
Carpet and some stairs between us
Where pass the brave and the strong
I have loved you such
That you cannot guess
Whether I will fight for you
Or rest
We are sitting here in silence
Last one that we?ll make
It?s an awful truce we?re taking
I?ll be glad to see it break
Can anything be gained
When so much has been lost
If I speak through the silence
And risk the bitter cost?
